Answer:
Explanation:
The advantage is that since binary fission is asexual reproduction, it is an extremely fast process. It does not take long time to form an offspring. For example, you catch a throat infection, then the bacteria inside your throat would reproduce quickly and would spread to all your friends and family.
The disadvantage is that since the daughter cells are identical in genes, any changes in the environment that is harmful to one would put the entire population of that group in danger. For example, if the antibiotic for the throat bacteria kills one bacteria, then it would kill all the bacteria altogether.
