Solution:Vegetative propagation is the most widely used method of reproduction in plants like bananas, oranges, roses, and jasmine that have lost the capacity to produce seeds.
The plants produced by vegetative propagation are genetically similar to the parent plant and possess all the characteristics of the parent plant.Plants formed by this method also produce flowers and fruits earlier than those formed from seeds.

Cutting-In this method new plants are formed from stem,leaf and root portions.
Tissue culture-This method is carried out in laboratory conditions
