Detailed explanation-1: -In binary fission how does the DNA of the daughter cells compare to the DNA of the parent cell? It is only half of the amount of DNA found in the parent.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis creates two identical daughter cells that each contain the same number of chromosomes as their parent cell. In contrast, meiosis gives rise to four unique daughter cells, each of which has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -The parent cell simply divides to form two daughter cells that are identical to the parent. Asexual reproduction produces offspring that are genetically identical to the parent, whereas sexual reproduction produces a similar, but genetically unique offspring.
Detailed explanation-4: -In the process of binary fission the parent organism divides into two halves. Each half forms an independent daughter organism. Binary fission involves mitosis. Here, the resultant offsprings are genetically identical to the parent and to each other.
Detailed explanation-5: -Amoeba reproduces asexually through binary fission. In this process, an individual divides itself into two daughter cells. These are genetically identical to each other.
