The NINDS supports research on disorders of the brain and nervous system such as Chiari malformations. The goals of this research are to increase scientific understanding of these disorders and to find ways to prevent, treat, and, ultimately, cure them.
Organisms in the domains of Archaea and Bacteria reproduce with binary fission. This form of asexual reproduction and cell division is also used by some organelles within eukaryotic organisms (e.g., mitochondria). Binary fission results in the reproduction of a living prokaryotic cell (or organelle) by dividing the cell into two parts, each with the potential to grow to the size of the original.
In the middle of the cell a constricting ring forms in the plasma membrane. As this ring constricts it pinches or separates the cell into two daughter cells, each with a complete chromosome. d. Binary fission is an asexual cloning process. Asexual because one parent cell divides to form two daughter cells.It is a form of cloning because the daughter cells are genetically identical to each other and to the original parent cell.. There are three basic types of cell division. 1. Binary fission: This is the simplest type of cell division mechanistically. It is characteristic of all prokaryotes and some protists. It is a form of asexual reproduction.
