( ) Binary fission produces two identical daughter cells.
( ) Mitosis occurs in the cytoplasm and does not require a nucleus.
( ) Binary fission does not replicate DNA.
(X) Mitosis has checkpoints that must be met to continue the cycle.
Explanation: Mitosis is part of the eukaryotic cell cycle with multiple regulated checkpoints and complex chromosome segregation machinery, making it longer and more complex than prokaryotic binary fission.
