B Correct answer
Explanation

Higher plants have complex structures and they have specialised parts to perform asexual (vegetative) reproduction. For example, leaves, stem, roots, etc. This formation of new organism from vegetative parts of a plant is called vegetative propagation. On the contrary, spore formation, budding and regeneration are reproductive methods found in lower organisms or plants.
