Fission

In general fission is a splitting or breaking up into parts.

In physics, nuclear fission is a process where a large nucleus such as uranium is split into two smaller nuclei.

In biology, binary fission refers to the process whereby a prokaryote reproduces by cell division. It is similar to mitosis and meiosis in eukaryotes.
