Detailed explanation-1: -How do prokaryotes reproduce? Prokaryotes reproduce through a cell division process called binary fission. Like mitosis in eukaryotes, this process involves copying the chromosome and separating one cell into two.
Detailed explanation-2: -Binary fission is a process of asexual reproduction carried out by all prokaryotes-organisms without a true nucleus as well as in some eukaryotes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Reproduction in prokaryotes is asexual and usually takes place by binary fission. The DNA of a prokaryote exists as as a single, circular chromosome. Prokaryotes do not undergo mitosis; rather the chromosome is replicated and the two resulting copies separate from one another, due to the growth of the cell.
Detailed explanation-4: -Most bacteria rely on binary fission for propagation. Conceptually this is a simple process; a cell just needs to grow to twice its starting size and then split in two.
Detailed explanation-5: -Binary Fission. The cell division process of prokaryotes, called binary fission, is a less complicated and much quicker process than cell division in eukaryotes. Because of the speed of bacterial cell division, populations of bacteria can grow very rapidly.
