Asexual Reproduction
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Binary fission starts with a single cell that copies its DNA and then splits into two identical cells. This is a very fast and efficient way for bacteria and similar types of cells to create offspring.
Detailed explanation-2: -There are two types of reproduction: asexual and sexual reproduction. Though asexual reproduction is faster and more energy efficient, sexual reproduction better promotes genetic diversity through new combinations of alleles during meiosis and fertilization.
Detailed explanation-3: -Amoeba and euglena exhibit binary fission. It is one of the simplest and uncomplicated methods of asexual reproduction. The parent cell divides into two, each daughter cell carrying a nucleus of its own that is genetically identical to the parent.
Detailed explanation-4: -Asexual reproduction occurs quickly, but because all of the offspring have the same genetic information, individuals are more susceptible to disease. Budding and fragmentation are not the same thing.
