The answer is B. vegetative reproduction.

Vegetative reproduction is any form of ASEXUAL reproduction occurring in plants in which a new plant grows from a fragment of the parent plant or a specialized reproductive structure.

Many plants naturally reproduce this way, but it can also be induced artificially.

Answer:

The correct answer option is B. vegetative reproduction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some plants can reproduce without involving fertilization. This process allows plants to grow much faster and is known as vegetative reproduction.

Vegetative reproduction is a type of asexual reproduction in plants which means that only one plant is able to produce an offspring on its own.

Since there is no involvement of another plant to reproduce, therefore this process is faster than sexual reproduction.
