Which of the following processes is the main way by which bacteria reproduce?
A
sexually, by fertilization
B
sexually, by binary fission
C
asexually, by fertilization
D
asexually, by binary fission
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Bacteria reproduce asexually by the method called binary fission. Binary fission is a kind of asexual reproduction. It is the most common form of reproduction in prokaryotes and occurs in some single-celled eukaryotes. After replicating its genetic material, the cell divides into two nearly equal-sized daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bacteria reproduce through a process called binary fission. During binary fission, the chromosome copies itself, forming two genetically identical copies. Then, the cell enlarges and divides into two new daughter cells. The two daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Binary fission is an asexual mode of reproduction in which a cell splits into two daughter cells. This mode of reproduction is seen in Amoeba, Leishmania, and also in bacteria.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.

Detailed explanation-5: -Most bacteria, including Salmonella and E. coli, reproduce by binary fission. During this type of asexual reproduction, the single DNA molecule replicates and both copies attach, at different points, to the cell membrane. As the cell begins to grow and elongate, the distance between the two DNA molecules increases.
