The answer is mitosis.

Binary fission is a type of cell division characteristic of unicellular organisms . There are 4 steps in binary fission:<span>
Step 1 Genetic material duplicates.</span>

Step 2 Cell grows in size and other organelles duplicate.

Step 3 Cell wall or membrane forms.

Step 4 Cells separate into two new cells.

Mitosis is a process cell division, where one cell divides into two identical cells. Mitosis consists of four phases:

1. Prophase: Chromatin in the nucleus condenses and chromosomes pair up.

2. Metaphase: Chromosomes line up at the centre of the cell.

3. Anaphase: The sister chromatids separate from each other to the opposite sides of the cells.

4. Telophase and Cytokinesis: Membrane forms around each set of chromosomes on two opposite sides of the cells and cell divides into two identical daughter cells.

As can be seen, some steps are similar. And the end products in both cases are new cells. In mitosis, however, new cells are part of a multicellular organism while in binary fission, new cells represent new organisms.

What is the difference between an organisms habitats and niche ?
VladimirAG [237]
<span>Organism's habitat (where a species live) can be described as all of the biotic and abiotic factors in the area where an organism lives.
b. Ecological niche (how species live) is composed of all of the physical, chemical, and biological factors that a species needs to survive, stay healthy and reproduce. The niche includes food, abiotic conditions, and behavior.</span>

The defecation reflex __________. involves long and short reflexes and involves two positive feedback loops involves two positiv
ch4aika [34]
The defecation reflex involves two postive feedback loops. these loops are the stretch receptors in the rectal walls and the sacral parasympathetic system. Defecation reflex empties the rectum by peristaltic movements push fecal matter from the sigmoid colon into the rectum. Then this distension of the rectal walls stimulates stretch receptors which results in defecation.

Nat2105 [25]
The cell membranes begin to come apart when there is insufficient water around the cells. The cytoplasm of the cells becomes more concentrated, which slowly poisons the cells. The cell walls become brittle as they dry out, and some of them collapse. The central vacuoles in the cells lose water and can no longer help support the cells.

in sexual reproduction an offspring is produced with genes from both parents when the offspring has a new genetic variation that
cluponka [151]

Explanation:

Mutations introduce novel variety in a population.

During the process of cell division, spontaneous changes within the genome can arise. These mutations are errors occur when copies of the DNA within the cell are made; mutations may range from small changes called single nucleotide polymorphisms, to large scale deletions, and additions which span multiple genes. There are two types:

  • somatic: these only occur within certain cells, and arise from environmental factors such as UV light
  • hereditary: occur within germ cells of the parent and later the fertilized egg which forms a zygote; these are present within all cells of the new organism.

Further Explanation:

During reproduction other events, such as crossing over during  meiosis, mutations lead to increases in genetic variation. This variation refers to the genetic characteristics present within a species. Mutations may be either beneficial or deleterious; they are maintained within cells, as they form new traits called alleles. Beneficial mutations may confer traits that increase the fitness of a species, along with ensuring survival by conferring a protective advantage- these phenotypic differences between organisms are called adaptations.

Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA, which makes up the genotype, is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins which make up the phenotype of an organism.Mutations in DNA sequences affect the corresponding mRNA and thus the protein encoded.
