Q31 of 58 Page 1

Slides of binary fission in amoeba and budding in yeast were given for observations to a group of students. Some of the observations reported by the group are given below:

I. Cytokinesis was observed in the yeast cell.


II. A chain of buds were observed due to reproduction in amoeba.


III. Single cell of amoeba and single cell of yeast were undergoing binary fission and budding respectively.


IV. Elongated nucleus was dividing to form two daughter nuclei in amoeba.


The correctly reported observations are:

An amoeba and yeast undergoes binary fission and budding and are single celled. Moreover, The elongated nucleus gets divided into two daughter cells in case of amoeba. This process is known as Binary fission.
