Question

C) Binary fission and multiple fission
differentiate

Answer 1

Binary fission happen in favorable condtion where nucleus of (ex : amoeba) divides by mitosis giving two daughter cells and the mother cell disappears while multiple fission can happen in both favorable and unfavorable the nucleus undergoes repeated division to produce a large number of nuclei Each nucleus along with little bit of cytoplasm forms a membrane around it

Answer 2

Binary fission

1. Forms two daughter individuals

2. Divides only once

3. No residue is left

4. Takes place in favourable conditions

5. Immortality is present

Example: Amoeba reproduces by binary fission

Multiple fission

1. Forms many daughter individuals

2. Divides repeatedly

3. Residue is left

4. Takes place in favourable as well as unfavourable conditions

5. Immortality is absent

Example: Plasmodium reproduces through multiple fission
