Read the excerpt from "the open window." "her great tragedy happened just three years ago," said the child; "that would be since

your sister’s time." "her tragedy?" asked framton; somehow in this restful country spot tragedies seemed out of place.

Give one piece of evidence from the diagram that indicates that this organism reproduces asexually.
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

Most bacteria, including Salmonella and E. coli, reproduce by binary fission. During this type of asexual reproduction, the single DNA molecule replicates and both copies attach, at different points, to the cell membrane.
