To solve the question regarding Agamospermy and asexual reproduction, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states that "Agamospermy is the process of asexual reproduction." - Agamospermy refers to the formation of seeds without fertilization, specifically from an unfertilized ovule.
