Question

Please help i only have one question and i cant get help!!!
How would you expect a bacterium near the end of binary fission to look?

It would be pinched inward at the middle as it forms two new cells.
It would join another bacterium through a thin, threadlike bridge.
It would be bulging out in the middle as it doubles its cytoplasm.
It would form a small, rounded, thick-walled resting cell inside

Answer 2

is that biology?

Answer 3

Science

Answer 4

Most bacteria rely on binary fission for propagation. Conceptually this is a simple process; a cell just needs to grow to twice its starting size and then split in two. But, to remain viable and competitive, a bacterium must divide at the right time, in the right place, and must provide each offspring with a complete copy of its essential genetic material. Bacterial cell division is studied in many research laboratories throughout the world. These investigations are uncovering the genetic mechanisms that regulate and drive bacterial cell division. Understanding the mechanics of this process is of great interest because it may allow for the design of new chemicals or novel antibiotics that specifically target and interfere with cell division in bacteria

Hope that helps.

Well done, you forgot to cite your reference:

@LittleDiva12459

Please post biology questions in the biology section. You could ask for help from a different pool of helpers by posting a reference to the question in a different (e.g. Mathematics) section, for example: the title could be:
Need help in Biology, see link below.
and post the link to the original question in the biology section.
This will remind helpers who can help in biology to work in the biology section in the future.
================================================
The last stage in binary fission (mitosis) in an animal cell (incl. bacteriua) is cytokinesis, which cannot happen to a plant cell because of the stiff cell wall in general.
You can read about this last stage here, and hence find the correct answer to your question:
