Question

Which is the mode of reproduction in Amoeba?

• A. Binary fission only
• B. Binary fission and multiple fission
• C. Binary fission and conjugation
• D. Multiple fission only

Answer 1

The correct option is B Binary fission and multiple fission

• Binary fission is the asexual form of reproduction in which a single-celled organism divides itself into two cells, in favourable conditions.
• Multiple fission is the asexual form of reproduction where the parent Amoeba cell divides to give many daughter cells in unfavourable conditions.
• But, Amoeba may divide in binary or multiple fission modes of reproduction.

Thus, thecorrect answer is option B.
