The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Identify the Aquatic Plants**: The question mentions two specific aquatic plants: Vallisneria and Eichhornia. 2. **Understand Vegetative Propagation**: Vegetative propagation is a form of asexual reproduction where new plants grow from parts of the parent plant, such as stems, leaves, or roots. 3. **Determine the Type of Vegetative Propagule for Vallisneria**: - Vallisneria reproduces using **stolons**. - Stolons are horizontal stems that grow along the surface of the soil or substrate, and they can produce new plants at their nodes. 4. **Determine the Type of Vegetative Propagule for Eichhornia**: - Eichhornia, commonly known as water hyacinth, reproduces using **offsets**. - Offsets are lateral branches that grow from the main stem and can develop into new plants. 5. **Summarize the Findings**: - Vallisneria utilizes stolons for vegetative propagation. - Eichhornia utilizes offsets for vegetative propagation. 6. **Conclusion**: The vegetative propagules in Vallisneria are stolons, while in Eichhornia, they are offsets. **Final Answer**: The vegetative propagules in aquatic plants like Vallisneria and Eichhornia are stolons and offsets, respectively. ---
