Multiple Fission


 
 
Concept Explanation
 

Multiple Fission

it is the type fission in which the parent organism divides into many identical daughter organisms at the same time. In this, the nucleus of the cell splits repeatedly to form many smaller nuclei called daughter nuclei surrounded by a little bit of cytoplasm and thin membrane around them. In this way, many new daughter cells are formed from a parent cell within a protective wall (cyst). Under favourable conditions, the cyst bursts and the daughter cells are released each forming a new organism. Multiple fission can be seen in organisms, such as Plasmodium (malarial parasite), Monocystis, etc.
