Question

Different between binary fission and Multiple fission​

Answer 1

Answer:

In binary fission, the parent cell divides itself into two equal and identical daughter cells. It is the most common form of reproduction in prokaryotes such as bacteria.

In multiple fission, a single parent cell is divided into many daughter cells.

Answer 2

Answer:

binary fission :

• binary fission forms only two offspring from a single parent
• this method of reproduction occurs in normal conditions
• in this method the nucleus divides once
• in this cytoplasm also divides into two parts
• the parents cell does not get destroyed but it gets divided into two parts
• eg ameoba

multiple fission:

• multiple fission forms many offspring from a single parent
• this method of reproduction occurs in unfavorable condition
• the nucleus divides several times
• in this small amount of cytoplasm collect around each daughter nuclei after multiple division
• in this with breaking of cyst , the parents cell also break
• eg plasmodium
