The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Callus Formation:** - Callus is a mass of undifferentiated cells that forms in response to injury or in tissue culture. It is primarily composed of plant cells that are in a state of division and growth. 2. **Analyzing the Options:** - **Wood:** In the case of wounds in plants, callus formation occurs as part of the healing process. Therefore, callus is produced in wood. - **Tissue Culture:** In tissue culture, especially from meristematic tissues, callus is intentionally induced for plant propagation. Thus, callus is produced in tissue culture. - **Suspension Culture:** In suspension culture, cells are cultured in a liquid medium, and as they divide, they can also form callus. Hence, callus is produced in suspension culture. - **Sexual Reproduction:** During sexual reproduction, male and female gametes combine to form a zygote. This process does not involve the formation of callus. 3. **Conclusion:** - Based on the analysis, the option where callus is not produced is **sexual reproduction**. **Final Answer: Sexual reproduction.** ---
