Solution

The correct option is D binary fission
In the process of binary fission, the parent organism divides into two halves. Each half forms an independent daughter organism. Binary fission involves mitosis. Here, the resultant offsprings are genetically identical to the parent and to each other. E.g. Amoeba, Paramoecium, etc.
