22. . Binary FissionBinary Fission - occurs - occurs in one-celled organisms in one-celled organisms such as the ameba and such as the ameba and paramecium. The nucleus paramecium. The nucleus divides by mitosis and the divides by mitosis and the cytoplasm divides, cytoplasm divides, forming 2 new daughter forming 2 new daughter cells of equal size.cells of equal size.

3. 3. BuddingBudding - Occurs in Hydra and yeast. The division of - Occurs in Hydra and yeast. The division of cytoplasm is unequal so one of the daughter cells is cytoplasm is unequal so one of the daughter cells is larger than the other. The daughter cells can separate larger than the other. The daughter cells can separate or remain attached. A copy of the nucleus is made, or remain attached. A copy of the nucleus is made, then a tiny bud begins to form on the cell wall. This then a tiny bud begins to form on the cell wall. This bud, containing the new nucleus continues to grow and bud, containing the new nucleus continues to grow and eventually breaks away. eventually breaks away.
