  2. B

  3. C

  4. D
    Asparagus and Bryophyllum

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Both Bryophyllum and Kalanchoe can be vegetatively propagated by leaf pieces. This is because both plants have the ability to produce adventitious roots and shoots from their leaves, which can develop into new plants. So, the correct answer is option A. Notice that the other options are not correct. Chrysanthemum and Agave can be propagated by other means, such as stem cuttings or division, but not by leaf pieces. Asparagus can be propagated by division or seed, but not by leaf pieces.
