Question

  1. which process is like mitosis but occurs in simpler cells? binary fusion binary fission meiosis

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction in prokaryotes (simpler cells) that is similar to mitosis in eukaryotes as it results in the division of a cell into two daughter - cells with similar genetic material. Binary fusion is not a recognized cell - division process. There is no such thing as tertiary fission in common cell - division terminology. Meiosis is a specialized cell - division process for sexual reproduction in eukaryotes and is very different from mitosis in terms of the number of daughter cells and genetic content.

Answer:

C. binary fission
