Q11.How does Amoeba reproduce to produce new individuals

Answer 1

Reproduction in amoeba is carried out by binary fission which is an asexual(uniparental) method of reproduction.

Binary fission is simply cell division where a single cell gives rise to 2 daughter cells.
(bi=2, fission =division)
Firstly the nucleus divides into 2 followed by creation of additional set of cellular apparatus (cell organelles) and finally 2 amoeba daughter cells are formed.

I hope this helps you.

Answer 2

Answer:

In binary fission of a fully grown Amoeba, the nucleus increases in size and divides into two parts. After that, the cytoplasm of amoeba divides into two parts around each nucleus. In this way, a single parent amoeba divides to form two daughter amoebae. The two daughter amoebae produced by binary fission grow to their full size and divide again.
