In bacteria, binary fission can be modeled in three stages.

These stages typically include:

  1. Initiation: The bacterial cell prepares for division, and DNA replication begins.
  2. Elongation: The cell grows larger, and the two copies of DNA move to opposite ends of the cell.
  3. Division: The cell membrane pinches inwards and the cell divides into two daughter cells.

So the correct response is "three stages."
