Question

what type of bacterial activity is represented in the diagram?
a binary fission
b biofilm
c exoenzymic activity
d growth curve
e endoenzymic activity

Explanation:

Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction in bacteria. The process starts with DNA replication (step 1), followed by cell elongation and plasma membrane constriction (step 2), then cross - wall formation to separate DNA copies (step 3), and finally cell separation (step 4). A biofilm is a community of bacteria attached to a surface. Exoenzymic and endoenzymic activities involve enzyme functions (exoenzymes act outside the cell, endoenzymes inside). A growth curve shows population growth over time. The diagram clearly depicts the steps of binary fission.

Answer:

A. binary fission
