Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
This kind of reproduction results in identical cells.
A
Binary Fission (asexual)
B
Conjugation (sexual)
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Amoeba reproduces asexually through binary fission. In this process, an individual divides itself into two daughter cells. These are genetically identical to each other.

Detailed explanation-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cell division by either binary fission or mitosis produces two genetically identical cells. This is the basis of asexual reproduction in single-celled organisms: prokaryotes reproduce by binary fission, and single-celled eukaryotes reproduce by mitosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Binary fission occurs when a parent cell splits into two identical daughter cells of the same size.

Detailed explanation-5: -Binary fission is a method of asexual reproduction which single-celled organisms, usually prokaryotes, use to create a copy of themselves. Another term for the process is cellular cloning. Mitosis is cell division that results in two identical daughter cells and is primarily used for growth of an organism.
