Reproduction in plants occurs through sexual and asexual methods. Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of male and female gametes, leading to genetic diversity. This process is facilitated by flowers, the reproductive structures of angiosperms. Asexual reproduction, or vegetative propagation, involves parts like stems, roots, or leaves, allowing plants to reproduce without genetic change. Common methods include budding, grafting, and the use of runners, ensuring rapid, clone-like propagation.
