Method of reproduction of protozoa through binary fission (1)

Binary fission starts with the division of the nucleus followed by the division of the cytoplasm

Method of reproduction of protozoa through binary fission (2)

The parent cell divides into two to form two daughter cells which have similar genetic materials as the parent

Paramecium reproduce asexually by binary fission
