a trichoplax is a simple multicellular animal that lives in water. this animal can reproduce asexually by simply dividing into two organisms.

part a: identify and describe a cellular division process that could be used by trichoplax when it reproduces asexually. (1 point)

part b: describe one benefit and one limitation of how the trichoplax can reproduce by simply dividing. (3 points)

Answer Part A:

A cellular division process that could be used by Trichoplax when it reproduces asexually would be mitosis.

Mitosis can be described as a process in which two daughter cells are produced which are identical to the parent cell. As trichoplax divides by asexual method of reproduction, hence it will divide by mitosis.

Answer Part B:

Benefit: This process occurs faster. Hence, the population will increase in a short time.

Limitation: No genetic variation will occur.

is in the form atp or adenosine triphosphate
