The advantage of multiple fission is that one parent cell divides into many daughter cells, this way the chances of survival are greater.

How does binary fission differ from multiple fission?

Binary fission is method of asexual reproduction wherein a single celled organism divides exactly into two daughter cells. Multiple fission, meanwhile, is where a single celled organism divides into a large number of daughter cells.


What is another word for the word binary fission?

That is a pretty specific word you got there, and there is no "real" synonym for it. You could explain the process of binary fission or you could compare it with multiple fission.


Prokaryotic cells reproduce by a process called?

binary fission


What are the advantages and disadvantages of multiple ovulation and embryo transfer?

Advantages: higher pregnancy rates due to more embryos being transferred, increased genetic diversity in offspring, potential for producing multiple offspring at once. Disadvantages: increased risk of multiple pregnancies (twins, triplets), higher costs associated with the procedure, potential for complications due to multiple pregnancies.


Does leishmania reproduce through binary fission or multiple fission?

The amoeba usually reproduces asexually by a process called binary fission (splitting in two), in which the cytoplasm simply pinches in half and pulls apart to form two identical organisms (daughter cells). This occurs after the parent amoeba's genetic (hereditary) material, contained in the nucleus, is replicated and the nucleus divides (a process known as mitosis). Thus, the hereditary material is identical in the two daughter cells. If an amoeba is cut in two, the half that contains the nucleus can survive and form new cytoplasm. The half without a nucleus soon dies. This demonstrates the importance of the nucleus in reproduction. Balaji. J M.Sc Microbiology

What is fragmentation or multiple fission?

Fragmentation is a form of asexual reproduction where an organism breaks into several pieces, each of which can grow into a new individual. Multiple fission, on the other hand, is a form of reproduction where a single organism divides into multiple daughter cells simultaneously. Both processes result in the production of multiple offspring without the need for fertilization.


What type of nuclear reaction involves one nucleus breaking into multiple nuclei?

Nuclear fission is the type of nuclear reaction where one nucleus breaks into multiple smaller nuclei. This process typically releases a large amount of energy and is the basis of nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
