Solution

The correct option is C Division of cytoplasm is equal
Binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction in which the fully grown parent cell splits into two halves, producing two new daughter cells. It is common among organisms such as Bacteria, Amoeba and Paramecium. After replicating its genetic material through mitotic division, the cell divides into two equal sized daughter cells. First of all nuclear division takes place followed by cleavage of cytoplasm into equal parts. Later it corresponds to the separation of the daughter nuclei into two daughter cells. The outcome of cell reproduction is a pair of daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell.
So the correct option is 'division of cytoplasm is equal'.
