True or False. By using cuttings, exact genetic characteristics can be maintained.

It is true to say that by using cuttings, exact genetic characteristics can be maintained, because the cuttings retain the same genetic information about the plant from which they were extracted.

Explanation:

Cuttings are buds or branches extracted from a plant to obtain a plant of the same species, through a type of asexual reproduction.

Once separated from the "progenitor" plant, the cutting is provided with a suitable medium for growth, and will have the possibility of growing roots, developing and growing as an independent plant, with the same genetic characteristics of the original plant, as if it were a clone.

In this reproductive process, man intervenes.
