Detailed explanation-1: -Bacteria reproduce primarily by binary fission, an asexual process whereby a single cell divides into two.
Detailed explanation-2: -Introduction of Reproduction in Bacteria. Offspring are produced through reproduction. Sexual and asexual reproduction are the two most common types.
Detailed explanation-3: -Binary fission is a type of asexual reproduction typically observed in prokaryotes and a few single-celled eukaryotes. In this method of asexual reproduction, there is a separation of the parent cell into two new daughter cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -In more complex organisms, such as colonial bacteria, reproduction involves fragmentation of a group of cells into smaller groups. Bacterial species demonstrate a wide range of fragmentation modes, differing both in the size at which the parental group fragments and the number and sizes of offspring groups [5].
