Question

Cell wall synthesis is the final step in the formation of daughter cells in many bacteria.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Bacteria undergoes binary fission. It is important that it divides at the right time and at the right place. Bacteria must ensure that each offspring receives a complete copy of its essential genetic components, which is the DNA. The cell copies the DNA and segregates these copies to the opposite sides of the cell. Division happens in such a way that the cytoplasm is split without damaging the DNA in the process. The last step for completing the process of fission is the cell wall synthesis.
