Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Binary fission is the process by which bacteria reproduce asexually by dividing into two identical cells. It does not involve the exchange or recombination of genetic material between cells, so it is not a method bacteria use to generate new combinations of genes. Transformation, transduction, and conjugation all involve the transfer of genetic material between cells and can result in new combinations of genes.
