The correct options are
B Amoeba
C Plasmodium
Multiple fission is when the parent cell divides into multiple cells and in the case of binary fission the parent divides into two cells.
Amoeba and Plasmodium undergo multiple fission in unfavourable conditions.
Paramecium reproduces by binary fission exclusively.
Yeast reproduces both by sexual (spores) and an asexual (budding) means.
