1. The answer is cutting. It is a method of artificial propagation in plants wherein the stem with a leaf attached is placed in a suitable medium, for example, moist soil so it will form its roots.

2. The answer is Grafting. Grafting is a method of artificial propagation in plants where the stem of the desired plant is grafted onto another plant called the rootstock. Grafting is done by cutting in an oblique way the two plants to be combined together, placed close to each other and then held together.

3. The benefits of artificial propagation are that plants will mature faster since they are growing on already mature or adult plant parts. Also, the new plant is known to be stronger than that of a seedling.

Which type of mutation affects the largest number of genes
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Chromosomal Mutation

Explanation:

The development and function of an organism is in large part controlled by genes. Mutations can lead to changes in the structure of an encoded protein or to a decrease or complete loss in its expression. Because a change in the DNA sequence affects all copies of the encoded protein, mutations can be particularly damaging to a cell or organism. In contrast, any alterations in the sequences of RNA or protein molecules that occur during their synthesis are less serious because many copies of each RNA and protein are synthesized.

Geneticists often distinguish between the genotype and phenotype of an organism. Strictly speaking, the entire set of genes carried by an individual is its genotype, whereas the function and physical appearance of an individual is referred to as its phenotype. However, the two terms commonly are used in a more restricted sense: genotype usually denotes whether an individual carries mutations in a single gene (or a small number of genes), and phenotype denotes the physical and functional consequences of that genotype.
