The correct answer is d. both excitation and inhibition.

There is a process which is called summation and it refers to the process that determines whether or not an action potential (on postsynaptic neuron) will be generated by the combined effects of excitatory and inhibitory signals (from the presynaptic neurons). Depending on the sum total of inputs, summation may or may not reach the threshold voltage to trigger an action potential (firing of postsynaptic potential).

Binary fission is a reproduction process wherein one cell divides asexually into two cells forming two daughter cells. into In binary fission, the chromosome is being replicated in which the resultant prokaryote is exactly the same copy of the parental prokaryote which means to say that there is no chance for genetic diversity. However, prokaryotes can still share or even exchange genes through the mechanisms of  transformation, transduction and conjugation.</span>
