In a heterolytic fission, both the electrons shared in the bond go to one atom (almost always the more electronegative atom). In homolytic fission, the electrons go to the two separate atoms.

Which type of cell division occurs in binary fission?

A cell: All cells divide using Binary fission (except for sex cells which use meiosis) plant cells use binary fission (that is how they grow and repair) animal cell use binary fission (also how grow and repair themselves) bacteria use binary fission (this is how they reproduce, they evolve due to genetic mutations that some times occur during binary fission). The only things that don't use this are viruses which aren't cells and aren't even considered living.
