Question

Hi, can someone help me these few questions! Will mark as brainliest! Thanks

Answer 1

Answer:

a)the process is binary fission

b)The stages involved are:

The parent cell first grows bigger by increasing the amount of cytoplasm

the DNA replicates and the nucleus undergoes mitosis, resulting in the formation of two daughter nuclei

the cell membrane constricts thereby dividing the cytoplasm in two so that each nucleus is surrounded by it's own cytoplasm

the two daughter cells separate.

c)the advantage is that offspring take short time to mature

the disadvantage is that it leads to overcrowding and competition for resources.

I hope this helps
