Different types of plant reproduce differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 \u2013 The first type is:- One cell can split into two , giving you two identical cells. That type is asexual reproduction and is common in plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2 \u2013 New plants may be regenerated from leaves , stems , or roots and become separated from the parent plant. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3 \u2013 Grafting occurs whenever 2 cut ends of plant stems are fused. A bud or shoot from one plant is inserted into a cleft or under the bark on the stem of a closely related variety. The rooted portion is called the stock; the bud or shoot being grafted is the scion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4 \u2013 Layering occurs when aerial roots touch soil & start growing new plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5 \u2013 Cuttings: fragments of plant can regenerate into whole individuals. It is possible to produce new individuals from certain plants by putting the cut end of a shoot into water or moist earth. Roots grow from the base of the stem into the soil while the shoot continues to grow and produce leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6 \u2013 Rhizomes: Underground stems produce new plants. Rhizomes are stems which grow horizontally under the ground. In some cases the underground stems are swollen with food reserves. The terminal bud turns upwards to produce the flowering shoot and the lateral buds may grow out to form new rhizomes<\/p>\n\n\n\n
7 \u2013 Bulbs consist of very short stems with closely packed leaves arranged in concentric circles round the stem. These leaves are swollen with stored food e.g. onion. A terminal bud will produce next year\u2019s flowering shoot and the lateral buds will produce new plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
8 \u2013 Runners are also horizontal stems growing from the parent plant , but they grow above ground. When their terminal buds touch the ground they take root and produce new plants. For example: strawberry<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9 \u2013 Potatoes do not have seed \u2013 From one potato we have another potato that grows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
10 \u2013 Small pieces may break off and become a new plant (fragmentation)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
11 \u2013 Small buds may be washed off by rain and develop new moss plants<\/p>\n\n\n\n
12 \u2013 The second type is when two cells , each with half of the DNA needed , combine and create a living cell. That type is sexual reproduction For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
13 \u2013 Pollination: It is the transfer of pollen from one flower to another flower and then through numerous stages it becomes a fruit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Creator and Lord of the Universe has programmed all the details of how a plant reproduces and all the procedures that it encloses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
And He is The Nourisher. He who gives every creature it\u2019s sustenance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
He is The Equitable One. He who does everything with proper balance and harmony.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
He is The Incomparable. He who is without model or match , and who brings into being worlds of amazing wonder.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
He is The Resurrector. He who brings the dead to life.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
He is The One who created all things so that each whole and its parts are in perfect conformity and harmony.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
He is The One who knows every details.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
He is The Absolute Ruler. He is The Ruler of the entire universe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
