Solution

The correct option is D leaf buds - banana
Vegetative propagation is a type of reproduction where the new plant part develops from any part of the plant other than the reproductive part.
The potato is a stem modification to store food and known as a tuber. It has 'eyes'.
Ginger propagates by the help of rhizome.
Agave is a plant in which the propagation takes place by bulbils.
In banana, the modification is a sucker and the propagation takes place by it.
The offset is a mode of the formation of a new plant in water hyacinth or Eichhornia.
So, the correct option is 'leaf buds - banana'.
