The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Concept:
Vegetative propagation methods vary with plant species and plant parts used for multiplication.

Step 1: Match Offsetting.

Pineapple can be propagated through offsets. \[ A\rightarrow IV \]

Step 2: Match Scaling.

Scaling is used in bulbous plants and is matched with gladiolus in the given list. \[ B\rightarrow II \]

Step 3: Match Division.

Ferns are commonly propagated by division. \[ C\rightarrow I \]

Step 4: Match Layering.

Jasmine is commonly propagated by layering. \[ D\rightarrow III \] Therefore: \[ A-IV,\ B-II,\ C-I,\ D-III \] \[ \therefore \text{Correct Answer is (B)} \]
