Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Bacteria can reproduce in the following ways:(mark all that are correct).
A
sporulation
B
vegetative propagation
C
budding
D
binary fission
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Binary Fission – It is a common and simple method of asexual reproduction in bacteria. In this process of asexual reproduction, the parent cell divides into two, leading to two equal-sized daughter cells. Under favourable conditions, bacteria multiply rapidly and may double in 10-15 minutes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Most bacteria rely on binary fission for propagation. Conceptually this is a simple process; a cell just needs to grow to twice its starting size and then split in two.
