In method P, pollen from a flower fertilises an egg cell in the same flower. A seed develops.
In method Q, a runner grows from the plant and produces a new plant. No gametes join.
Ignore mutations. Which statement correctly compares the two methods?
P is asexual because one plant is involved; Q produces genetically identical offspring.
P is sexual because gametes join together; Q produces genetically different offspring.
P is sexual because gametes join together; Q produces genetically identical offspring.
