Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Bacteria reproduce by a process called
A
sexual reproduction
B
crossing over
C
binary fission
D
meiosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Bacterial reproduction most commonly occurs by a kind of cell division called binary fission. Binary fission involves the division of a single cell, which results in the formation of two cells that are genetically identical.

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: -How do bacteria reproduce? Most bacteria reproduce by binary fission. In this process the bacterium, which is a single cell, divides into two identical daughter cells. Binary fission begins when the DNA of the bacterium divides into two (replicates).
