Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A type of asexual reproduction in which an organism replicates its DNA and divides in half, producing two identical daughter cells
A
conjugation
B
binary fission
C
endospore
D
nitrogen fixation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -binary fission, asexual reproduction by a separation of the body into two new bodies. In the process of binary fission, an organism duplicates its genetic material, or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and then divides into two parts (cytokinesis), with each new organism receiving one copy of DNA.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fission. Fission, also called binary fission, occurs in prokaryotic microorganisms and in some invertebrate, multi-celled organisms. After a period of growth, an organism splits into two separate organisms. Some unicellular eukaryotic organisms undergo binary fission by mitosis.

Detailed explanation-3: -There are several different methods of asexual reproduction. They include binary fission, fragmentation, and budding. Binary fission occurs when a parent cell splits into two identical daughter cells of the same size.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fission. In fission (or binary fission), a parent separates into two or more individuals of about equal size. This type of reproduction is common among single-celled organisms including bacteria, archaea, and unicellular eukaryotes, such as protists and some fungi. The single cell divides into two daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Binary fission is when an organism splits into two identical individual organisms without sex taking place. It is a type of asexual reproduction which often occurs in prokaryote micro-organisms. Some organelles among eukaryotes reproduce using binary fission.
