Question
The most common forms of reproduction in bacteria is parthenogenesis.
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
This statement is false. The most common form of reproduction in bacteria is binary fission, a type of asexual reproduction where one cell divides into two identical daughter cells. Parthenogenesis is a form of reproduction in some animals (like aphids) where an unfertilized egg develops into an embryo.
Hint
Do bacteria reproduce by splitting into two (binary fission) or by 'virgin birth' (parthenogenesis)?
