Question

From the given diagrams, select the correct ones showing stages of binary fission in Amoeba.

• A. I, II, III
• B. IV, II, III
• C. V, II, III
• D. IV, I, III

Answer 1

The correct option is B IV, II, III

Binary fission is an asexual mode of reproduction in Amoeba wherein replication of chromosome (IV) is followed by inward growth of cytoplasmic membrane (II) toward the centre to divide the cell into two daughter cells (III). Figure I shows budding which mainly takes place in yeast.

So, the correct answer is option B.
