The correct answer would be D. mitosis.

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which a parent cell divides equally into two daughter cells, each containing the same number and type of chromosomes found in the parental cell.

Similarly, in binary fission the parent cell divides into two equal halves or two equal sized daughter cells, each containing the same genetic material as was present in the parent cell.

In both the processes, parent cell grows and replicate its genetic material before actual cell division takes place.

In addition, cytokinesis is also common in both the processes.

Answer from: Daxtyn

Mitosis is the type of cell division that is similar to binary fission.

Further Explanation Cell division is the process in which cells undergo division to form other new cells.

There are two types of cell division;

Mitosis Division Mitosis is a type of division in which a parent cell undergoes division to yield two daughter cells that are similar to the parent cells. The daughter cells have equal number of chromosomes as the parent and are identical to the parent. This type of cell division normally occurs in somatic cells of organisms and facilitates growth and development of organisms. Meiosis division Meiosis division is a type of division that occurs in gamete cells where a parent cell divides into four daughter cells that differ from the parent cells in terms of the number of chromosomes. In meiosis the daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cells. Meiosis occurs in the gamete cells and facilitates sexual reproduction in living organisms. Binary division Binary division is a type of asexual reproduction that occurs in bacteria cells. Bacteria cell undergo division through binary fission through which a single cell bacterium cell divides into two daughter cells that are identical. Binary division begins with replication of DNA in the bacteria cell, then follows the separation of the DNA copies. This is followed by division into two cells and separation of the cells. Binary division resembles mitotic division as two daughter cells that are identical to the parent are formed.

Nhumans, abo blood types refer to glycoproteins in the membranes of red blood cells. there are three alleles for this autosomal gene: ia, ib, and i. the ia allele codes for the a glycoprotein, the ib allele codes for the b glycoprotein, and the i allele doesn't code for any membrane glycoprotein. ia and ib are codominant, and i is recessive to both ia and ib. people with type a blood have the genotypes iaia or iai, people with type b blood are ibib or ibi, people with type ab blood are iaib, and people with type o blood are ii. if a woman with type ab blood marries a man with type o blood, which of the following blood types could their children possibly have? in humans, abo blood types refer to glycoproteins in the membranes of red blood cells. there are three alleles for this autosomal gene: ia, ib, and i. the ia allele codes for the a glycoprotein, the ib allele codes for the b glycoprotein, and the i allele doesn't code for any membrane glycoprotein. ia and ib are codominant, and i is recessive to both ia and ib. people with type a blood have the genotypes iaia or iai, people with type b blood are ibib or ibi, people with type ab blood are iaib, and people with type o blood are ii. if a woman with type ab blood marries a man with type o blood, which of the following blood types could their children possibly have? a, b, ab, and o ab and o a, b, and o a and b
