Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Certain ____ organisms can reproduce by dividing their cells
A
Unicellular
B
Multicellular
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Since unicellular organisms have only one cell present, when they divide, they give rise to two new cells, which can be considered a new organism. Each new cell is capable of performing all life processes by itself. So they can be considered a new individual. For example, amoeba divides by binary fission .

Detailed explanation-2: -We can consider cell division as a type of asexual reproduction in unicellular organisms because in the unicellular organism a single cell divides to form two identical daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Reproduction in Unicellular Organisms The unicellular organisms reproduce by binary fission. In this, a single cell divides, giving rise to two daughter cells. This can be seen in bacteria and amoeba.

Detailed explanation-4: -Unicellular organisms are the single celled organism. They divide by the asexual mode of reproduction like fission, budding etc. The cell division involves basically two process karyokinesis and cytokinesis.

Detailed explanation-5: -In Protists and Monerans, the organism’s cell divides into two and gives rise to new individuals. Therefore, in these organisms cell division is itself a mode of reproduction.
