Answer 2

In binary fission, the two new cells that are formed are susceptible to the same antibiotic.

Explanation:

Binary fission is the most common type of asexual reproduction in bacteria. Binary fission involves the duplication of the genetic information (i.e., bacterial DNA) and the subsequent separation into two cells during cytokinesis. It is a type of prokaryotic asexual reproduction where replication and segregation are simultaneous processes. Binary fission does not involve the incorporation of new genetic material, thereby the resulting daughter cells will inherit the same genetic information of the parental bacterium, being in this case susceptible to the same antibiotic.
