The best explanation supported by the models is option b:
"Binary fission and mitosis both produce daughter cells that are identical to the parent cells." This is because the models show a single cell dividing into two identical daughter cells, which is characteristic of both binary fission and mitosis.
Three models of cellular reproduction are shown below.

Which explanation about cellular reproduction is best supported by the models?
a
Meiosis and mitosis both produce daughter cells with fewer chromosomes than the parent cells.
b
Binary fission and mitosis both produce daughter cells that are identical to the parent cells
c
Mitosis and meiosis both produce diploid and haploid gametes during cellular replication.
d
Meiosis and binary fission both include the process of crossing over during cellular replication and two divisions.
