1. what is the biggest advantage in using chip budding?

a. plants are more compatible.
b. plants grow faster.
c. it is cheaper.
d. it can be done when the root system is not in active growth.

Explanation:

Chip budding is a grafting technique. The key advantage of chip budding is that it can be performed when the rootstock's root system is not in active growth (e.g., dormant periods), unlike some other grafting methods that require active growth stages. Option a is incorrect as compatibility isn't unique to chip budding. Option b is wrong as growth speed isn't its main advantage. Option c is incorrect as cost isn't the primary advantage.

Answer:

d. It can be done when the root system is not in active growth.
