in binary fission, DNA from the parent cell blank before it produces daughter cells

1 answer

In binary fission, DNA from the parent cell replicates before it produces daughter cells. During this process, the single circular DNA molecule in the parent cell is duplicated, allowing each daughter cell to receive an identical copy of the genetic material. After replication, the cell elongates and the DNA molecules are separated, followed by cytokinesis, which divides the cell into two daughter cells.
