<P> Multiple fission at the cellular level occurs in many protists, e.g. sporozoans and algae . The nucleus of the parent cell divides several times by amitosis, producing several nuclei . The cytoplasm then separates, creating multiple daughter cells . </P> <P> Some parasitic, single - celled organisms undergo a multiple fission - like process to produce numerous daughter cells from a single parent cell . Isolates of the human parasite Blastocystis hominis were observed to begin such a process within 4 to 6 days . Cells of the fish parasite Trypanoplasma borreli have also been observed participating in both binary and multiple fission . </P> <P> In the apicomplexans, a phylum of parasitic protists, multiple fission, or schizogony, is manifested either as merogony, sporogony or gametogony . Merogony results in merozoites, which are multiple daughter cells, that originate within the same cell membrane, sporogony results in sporozoites, and gametogony results in micro gametes . </P> <P> Green algae can divide into more than two daughter cells . The exact number of daughter cells depends on the species of algae and is an effect of temperature and light . </P>

Which type of fission would produce larger colonies in less period of time why
