What are some different ways that plants can reproduce asexually?

Answer 1

Some plants can naturally reproduce copies of themselves via the following methods:

Runners/ stolons - plants such as strawberries and grass types

Fragmentation - body part of the parent breaks off and can grow into a copy of the parent plant.

Budding - when plants grow a mini plant off of the parent plant that eventually grows into a full size adult plant - plants such as Cycas, Beaucarnea and Chlorophytum

Horticulturists take advantage of this regenerative process and are able to reproduce vegetative offspring (or clones) of a parent plant through the following methods artificial methods:

• Cuttings
• Budding
• Air-layering
• Division (of stolons and bulbs)

Answer 2

plants can carry both the sperm and the egg cell, making technically both male and female. This means it just mixes its pollen and egg to create a seed, as opposed to two mammals having to mate to create a baby. Plants might use an outside force, however, to take the pollen to the egg to fertilize it and create a seed. This is where bees, wind, etc. come in. Bees take pollen from flowers and spread it. Wind can shake a pine tree, making it release pollen from pine cones when open (try shaking a pine tree when the pine cones are open, you see a big fog of pollen).

Answer 4

here are some ways that I remember from my bio class on how plants can reproduce asexually:

-With their roots and stems.

-Some plants can produce seeds that don't need to be fertilized.

- parent plants can produce shooters

Answer 5

Plants can reproduce asexually through methods like fragmentation, where a piece of the plant breaks off and grows into a new plant; budding, where a bud grows on the parent plant and detaches to form a new plant; and by producing rhizomes or runners that grow horizontally underground or above ground to form new plants. Another method is through apomixis, where plants produce seeds without fertilization.

Answer 6

Because by the reproduction of the plant asexually it produces in a different form...in science

Answer 7

Due to the inherent power of regeneration plants can reproduce asexuallythrough buds, clones, tubers etc.

Answer 8

binnary fission
