What is transverse binary fission ? Describe it's process in paramecium.
Transverse binary fission is a method of asexual reproduction in certain organisms, including the single-celled protozoan Paramecium. In this process, the parent cell divides transversely into two daughter cells, each of which is genetically identical to the parent cell. Here's a description of the process in Paramecium:
1. Preparatory Stage: Before transverse binary fission, the Paramecium cell undergoes a period of growth and metabolic activity. It feeds on bacteria and other small organisms...
