Detailed explanation-1: -The outcome of binary fission is two new cells that are identical to the original cell. In contrast to prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells may divide via either mitosis or meiosis. Of these two processes, mitosis is more common.

Detailed explanation-2: -Although eukaryotes and prokaryotes both engage in cell division, they do so in different ways. In particular, eukaryotic cells divide using the processes of mitosis and meiosis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis is a cell division mechanism that occurs in somatic cells. In this process, the mother cell divides to produce two genetically identical daughter cells. In prokaryotic cells, mitosis and meiosis are not seen. Thus prokaryotes do not go through mitosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -Evolution in Action. The precise timing and formation of the mitotic spindle is critical to the success of eukaryotic cell division. Prokaryotic cells, on the other hand, do not undergo mitosis and therefore have no need for a mitotic spindle.
