Binary fission is a characteristic of prokaryotes and a few eukaryote species and is most similar to the process of mitosis; each parent cell divides into two daughter cells each containing half of the genetic material from the parent cell.
Answer:
C is the correct option. Storage of carbohydrates is not a function of the skeletal system.
Explanation:
Option A is correct because the skeletal system has parts like the red bone marrow in which red blood cells and white blood cells are produced.
Option B is correct because the bones store minerals like calcium and phosphorus.
Option D is correct because the major function of the skeletal system is to provide support and protect the vital organs of the body.
The skeletal system is not involved in storing carbohydrates. Hence, all statements are true except for statement C.
