Bananas are most often propagated asexually. Therefore, one reason they can be especially vulnerable to fungal infections is:
A. the cloned offspring remain connected to the parent, so the disease can spread easily.
B. fungi can infect the tools used to cut the connections between parent and cloned offspring.
C. the infection evolved more recently than the banana did so bananas have no defense.
D. bananas are the world's most popular fruit and are widely grown, making it easy for the fungus to be transmitted.
E. bananas are virtually identical genetically, so a disease that can infect one banana probably can also infect other bananas
