During Conjugation

Question

During conjugation
A)haploid micronuclei are exchanged.
B)macronuclei are formed.
C)binary fission occurs.
D)the micronuclei disappear.

Accepted Answer

During conjugation, haploid micronuclei are exchanged between two individuals, leading to genetic recombination. The macronuclei do not play a role in this process and are not formed or affected. Binary fission is a separate process by which cells divide into two identical daughter cells. The micronuclei do not disappear but rather exchange genetic material. Therefore, the best choice is A.
