Solution

The correct option is B Longitudinal binary fission
Binary fission is an asexual mode of reproduction in which the bacteria divides into two equal halves. The process starts with the duplication of genetic contents of a parent cell by the process of replication.
When the binary fission takes place along the longitudinal plane it is known as longitudinal binary fission. For example, in euglena binary fission takes place by longitudinal fission.
So, the correct answer is option D.
