Default New Pup?

Today I was changing the soil in my banana plant and down at the bottom of the roots was what looks like a new plant. It is green and pointed at top with a white bulb at the bottom with roots coming out of it. It is maybe 2 inches tall.

From what I understand about pups is that they grow out of the mother plant and this was completely separate.

I placed a picture of it below:



My questions are:
1) Is this a pup?
2) If not, what is it?
3) If so, is there any way to save it this early?
