Answer:
p represents the frequency of the dominant allele (in decimal form) of a gene
q represents the frequency of the recessive allele (in decimal form) of a gene
These 2 alleles are different; one is dominant, one is recessive.
p^2 = the frequency of homozygous dominant individuals in the population (decimal form)
2pq = the frequency of heterozygous individuals in the population (decimal form)
q^2 = the frequency of homozygous recessive in the population (decimal form)

Explanation:
Vegetative propagation does not require seeds or spores to produce offspring. In this propagation, offspring grow from a specific part of the parent plant. In different plants, vegetative propagation happens in different ways. Here are a few examples.
- Garlic, onions, and tulip plants all reproduce using genuine bulbs/true bulbs. These short covered stems are also called scaly bulbs because it has many layers.
- Crocuses reproduce using corms. Corms are similar to genuine bulbs. But, a corm doesn’t have as many layers as true bulbs.
- Potato plants reproduce using tubers. These underground growths propagate new plants from stems or growing points, which is called eyes.
- Ginger plants reproduce using rhizomes. These stems are those which grow sideways along with the soil or just below the surface.
- Strawberry plants reproduce using stolons. Stolons are looking like branches growing along the ground.
