<em>The type of reproduction described in the illustration is </em><u><em>vegetative reproduction.</em></u>
<u>Vegetative reproduction is a type of asexual reproduction during which a new organism grows from the fragments of the parent organism.</u> There are different methods of vegetative propagation in plants including stolons, bulbs, tubers, corms, etc.
The horizontal stems that give off plantlets that eventually grow to become a clone of the mother plant are the ones known as stolons.
