Question

And bacteria binary fission can be modeled in a one stage B three stages C four stages D two stages

Answer 1

Bacterial binary fission is commonly described as a process that occurs in **three stages**:

1. **Cell Growth**: The bacterial cell increases in size and synthesizes new cellular components.
2. **DNA Replication**: The bacterial chromosome is replicated, resulting in two identical copies of DNA.
3. **Cytokinesis**: The cell divides into two daughter cells, each with one copy of the DNA.

Therefore, the correct answer is **C three stages**.
