Detailed Solution

Concept- The development of roots from a plant stem while the stem is still attached to the parent plant is known as layering. The layer that results from separation from the parent plant is a rooted stem.
However, this method occasionally requires additional support during plant propagation because certain plants spontaneously reproduce through layering.
Layering is a method of asexual propagation during which the stem is made to produce roots while still attached to the parent plant. The parent plant gives the new plant water and nutrients while the roots form. Layering can be used for plants that are difficult to propagate using other methods.
Therefore the technique of pegging a branch in the soil is called layering.
Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
