Fission, a splitting of something into two or more parts, may refer to:
Fission is a studio album by keyboardist Jens Johansson, released in 1997 through Heptagon Records (Europe); February 18, 1998 through Pony Canyon (Japan); and on March 24, 1998 through Shrapnel Records (United States). According to Johansson, the album went through an extremely troubled recording process due to several mishaps with Andy West's bass parts, which ultimately never made the album. On his website, Johansson also revealed that the indistinct image on the cover art is actually a heavily zoomed-in section of ice on a car window.
All songs written and composed by Jens Johansson.
In biology, fission is the division of a cell (or body, population, or species) into two or more parts and the regeneration of those parts into separate cells (bodies, populations, or species). Binary fission produces two separate cells, populations, species, etc., whereas multiple fission produces more than two cells, populations, species, etcetera
Prokaryotic fission, which is binary fission, is a form of asexual reproduction and cell division used by all prokaryotes (bacteria and archaebacteria) and some organelles within eukaryotic organisms (e.g., mitochondria). This process results in the reproduction of a living prokaryotic cell (or organelle) by dividing into two parts that each have the potential to grow to the size of the original cell (or organelle). This type of division takes place without the formation of spindles in the cell. The single DNA molecule first replicates, then attaches each copy to a different part of the cell membrane. When the cell begins to pull apart, the replicated and original chromosomes are separated. The consequence of this asexual method of reproduction is that all the cells are genetically identical, meaning that they have the same genetic material (barring random mutations).
My persection is set to a mode
Of squeezing thoughts into one lane
A phase that ends with overload
Through the head blows a violent hurricane
I feed this process with mental twisters
While watching man's stupidity
Building up a billion blisters
In the brains anatomy
Failing to flee, forced from the lee
Into the wind of unbearable motion
A blizzard of dree, across the mind's sea
Completes the inevitable tortion
Thought coordinations that fail to flex
Construct a daedal cyclone
I'm encircled by this vortex
Narrowed b the borders of it's cone
Dawn: becomes dark across the globe
Mountains: inverted abysses
The gentle breeze that travelled the lobes
Turns into typhoon enterprises
Failing to flee, forced from the lee
Into the wind of unbearable motion
A blizzard of dree, across the mind's sea
Completes the inevitable tortion
Awareness: flooded by infrequent precipitation
Vision: cursed by the spiral container
Hearing: deafened by this storm's invasion
