How do prokaryotic cells divide?
A
Mitosis
B
Binary Fission
C
Meiosis
D
Cell Cycle
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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: -The cell division process of prokaryotes (such as E. coli bacteria) is called binary fission. For unicellular organisms, cell division is the only method to produce new individuals. The outcome of this type of cell reproduction is a pair of daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Prokaryotic cells divide with the help of binary fission. 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.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bacteria reproduce through a process called binary fission. During binary fission, the chromosome copies itself, forming two genetically identical copies. Then, the cell enlarges and divides into two new daughter cells. The two daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.
