  1. 4. This plant grows small plants, called plantlets, on the edge of its leaves and detaches from the parent plant.
  2. 5. It is a stem that grows horizontally above the ground. Roots and leaves may develop from the nodes that touch the ground.
  3. 8. It is an underground stem that grows horizontally near the soil surface. Roots and buds develop at the nodes and grow into new plants.
  4. 9. It is an enlarged underground stem with "eyes" where buds develop. The buds develop stems and roots that grow into a new plant.
  5. 10. Onions and garlic are examples of the short, underground stems that contain stored food.

  1. 1. Banana and pineapple plants are from these new shoots that grow from the plant's main stem.
  2. 2. It is a mode of plant reproduction where the stem of one plant is joined to the stem of another plant.
  3. 3. This artificial vegetative propagation involves burying a part of a stem while attached to its mother plant to create a new plant. The plant resulting from this procedure is identical to the mother plant.
  4. 6. This vegetative propagation is the process of growing plants from different plant parts, such as the stem, the roots, or the leaves.
  5. 7. It is an underground stem with scaly leaves and a thick stem base containing stored food. An example of this vegetative propagation is the gabi or taro plant.
