If you don't know what binary fission is, I'm guessing you know a bit about mitosis. Through process of elimination, what could the answer be?

The answer is that binary fission does not provide the genetic diversity necessary for survival. Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction that creates a "clone" of the parent.
