C Correct answer
Explanation

In tissue culture, the selected cells from shoot tip etc. are allowed to proliferate and form new plants. This process is done under lab conditions and is not a natural method. Since it involves cells from only one plant, it is essentially asexual. There is no formation of spores and instead tiny plantlets are produced. Thus, only option (3) is correct.
