DNA is replicated before division.
Explanation: In binary fission the single (usually circular) chromosome is duplicated and each daughter cell receives a copy, preserving genetic continuity. Crossing over and random assortment are features of meiosis, and cytokinesis occurring first would not ensure correct genome transmission.
