Understand that binary fission is the process by which a bacterial cell divides into two identical daughter cells.
Identify the first step as DNA replication, where the bacterial chromosome is duplicated to ensure each daughter cell receives a copy.
Next, chromosome segregation occurs, which is the separation of the two replicated chromosomes to opposite ends of the cell.
Following segregation, septum formation begins, where a division septum (a new cell wall) starts to form between the two chromosomes.
Finally, cell separation happens, where the septum is completed and the two daughter cells physically separate from each other.
