Question Why is mitosis a longer and more complicated process of cell division than binary fission?(1 point) Responses Mitosis occurs in the cytoplasm and does not require a nucleus. Mitosis occurs in the cytoplasm and does not require a nucleus. Binary fission does not replicate DNA. Binary fission does not replicate DNA. Binary fission produces two identical daughter cells. Binary fission produces two identical daughter cells. Mitosis has checkpoints that must be met to continue the cycle.

Answer 1

The correct response to the question is: Mitosis has checkpoints that must be met to continue the cycle.

This option highlights the complexity and regulation involved in mitosis, making it a longer process compared to binary fission, which is a simpler form of cell division typically found in prokaryotes.
