REPRODUCTION IN ORGANISMS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
When binary fission occurs (asexual reproduction) two genetically different cells are formed.
A
true
B
false
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: -The type of reproduction in which only a single parent is involved is called asexual reproduction. Binary fission is a method of asexual reproduction in which an animal reproduces by dividing itself into two individuals.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -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-5: -The correct answer is d. It is a form of asexual reproduction. Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction.
