Question

Explain binary fission in amoeba.

Answer 1

When the parent Amoeba grows to its fullest ,it's nucleus starts dividing.

The nucleus divided to form 2 daughter nuclei.

Then the cytoplasm expands and divides.

After the cytoplasm divides, 2 new daughter amobae are formed..

Since two new individual are produced it is called binary fission

Answer 2

Hi friend,


Amoeba is a single celled organism who begins the process of reproduction by the division of its nucleus into two daughter nuclei.

This is followed by division of its body into two, each part receiving a nucleus.

Finally two amoebae are produced from one parent Amoeba.

This type of asexual reproduction in which animal reproduces by dividing into two individuals is called binary fission.

Hope it helps..........
