Answer:

Because this plant produces seeds, it likely reproduces through sexual reproduction.

Explanation:

This plant reproduces in a sexual way since the seed is the result of the union of the games through  the pollination process, according to the statement, these horizontal stems help the dispersion of these seeds and cannot be a type of asexual reproduction because they do not give rise to a new individual with genetic characteristics equal to the parent plant.
