Which of the following reproduce by binary fission?

Question

A) most unicellular eukaryotes

B) most unicellular prokaryotes

C) most multicellular prokaryotes

D) All of the above are correct.

Answer 1

Unlike eukaryotes, prokaryotes (which include bacteria) undergo a type of cell division known as binary fission. In some respects, this process is similar to mitosis; it requires replication of the cell's chromosomes, segregation of the copied DNA, and splitting of the parent cell's cytoplasm.
