Question
The mechanism that provides for reproduction in single-celled organisms and growth in multicellular organism is: a. Budding b. Fragmentation c. Mitosis d. Asexual reproduction
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Mitosis is the process of cell division that produces two identical daughter cells. In single-celled organisms, this is a form of asexual reproduction (binary fission). In multicellular organisms, mitosis is responsible for growth, repair, and replacing old cells.
