Which of the following describes a difference between the processing of genetic material in binary fission versus mitosis? a. in binary fission, a single dna strand splits into chromosomes; in mitosis, dna is copied directly. b. in binary fission, dna must undergo a mutation to replicate; in mitosis, it does not. c. in binary fission, dna is transferred between two neighboring cells; in mitosis, the chromosomes of only one cell are replicated. d. in binary fission, a single dna strand is replicated; in mitosis, multiple chromosomes are replicated.

C. In binary fission, DNA is transferred between two neighboring cells; in mitosis, the chromosomes of only one cell are replicated.

advantage of using stem cells in medical research:

1.       it provides medical benefits in the fields of therapeutic cloning and regenerative medicine.

2. it provides great potential for discovering treatments and cures to a variety of diseases including parkinson disease, spinal cord injuries, diabetes, alzheimer’s disease and many more.

3. limbs and organ could be grown in lab from stem cells and then used in transplant or treat illness.
