Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Asexual reproduction is the primary form of reproduction for single-celled organisms such as archaea and bacteria. Many eukaryotic organisms including plants, animals, and fungi can also reproduce asexually.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bacteria and single-celled eukaryotic organisms must reproduce asexually, however, numerous multi celled organisms also reproduce asexually.
Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -Scientists who study how organisms reproduce know that asexual reproduction is more efficient-for one thing, it’s about twice as fast as sexual reproduction, since every offspring can produce more.
