Protozoa iv. 72 Division of a cell is normally preceded by nuclear division, by either mitosis or meiosis, although in some multinucleate forms fission and nuclear division are not linked, so that for example new individuals may be formed by plasmotomy in which the body is simply separated into multinucleate masses—at any time some nuclei may be found in mitosis in such organisms. 1993 L.
