Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Binary fission is the process of a single organism dividing into two identical organisms. It is a method of asexual reproduction and does not involve the transfer of genetic material between different individuals. In contrast, horizontal gene transfer, genetic recombination, conjugation, and transformation all involve the transfer of genetic material between different organisms.
