Bacteria can reproduce quickly by means of binary fission. Because of this, after binary fission

Athe offspring will have traits of both parents.
Bthere is genetic variation among the offspring.
Call the offspring will be genetically identical.
Dnone of the offspring will be genetically like the parents.

The answer is C) all of the offspring will be genetically identical. This is because binary offspring is a type of asexual reproduction, it only takes one to create offspring. Hope this helps!

Answer:

The correct answer is option C, all the offspring will be genetically identical.

Explanation:

Binary fission is the process of cell division used in most of the unicellular organisms. It is very much similar to the mitotic division in the multi-cellular organisms. In bacteria's, cells dividing by binary fission copy its DNA. DNA replication during binary fission actually happens at the same time as DNA separation and thus the new cells formed are identical to each other.
