Which of the following describes how binary fission and mitosis are similar?
a)they are both used for growth or repair.
b)they both break down membrane-bound nuclei.
c) both involve the replication of a single strand of dna.
d) both replicate genetic material.

The correct answer is D. Both replicate genetic material

Explanation:

Mitosis is the process when an animal cell, plant cell, et cetera divides into two (or replicates itself).

Binary fission is the process when a bacteria splits off into two, which is a simple process since bacteria don't have a nucleus.

They both replicate genetic material when dividing or splitting into two,

so the correct answer is D. Both replicate genetic material.
