To accurately answer your question, I would need to see the illustration you are referring to, as the type of reproduction (sexual vs. asexual, conjugation, or binary fission) would depend on the characteristics shown in the image.
Here are brief descriptions of each type to help you decide:
-
Asexual reproduction: Offspring are produced from a single parent and are genetically identical to that parent. Common methods include budding, fission, and fragmentation.
-
Sexual reproduction: Involves two parents combining genetic material to produce genetically diverse offspring.
-
Conjugation: A specific type of sexual reproduction that involves the direct transfer of DNA between two organisms, often seen in bacteria.
-
Binary fission: A form of asexual reproduction where a single organism divides into two identical daughter cells, commonly seen in prokaryotes like bacteria.
If you can provide details about the illustration, I can help you determine which option is correct.
