Binary fission: It is the process of asexual reproduction, in which parent organism divides to form two new organisms. For eg. Amoeba-Amoeba reproduces by binary fission.
Multiple fission: It is the process of asexual reproduction, in which parent organism divides to form many new organisms. For eg. Plasmodium- Plasmodium reproduces by multiple fission.
When two new daughter cells are formed as a result of fission. It is called binary fission, e.g., Amoeba.
When many daughter cells are formed as a result of fission, this is called multiple fission, e.g., Malarial parasite.
In binary fission a single cell divides into two equal halves.Amoeba and Bacteria divide by binary fission.
In multiple fission, a single cell divides into many daughter cells simultaneously. Plasmodium divide by multiple fission.
