How do prokaryotic cells reproduce and divide?
Prokaryotic cells reproduce and divide using binary fission, mitosis, and meiosis. It just depends on the species of cell.
When do cells split into two cells?
It's all part of a cell's life. The cell must split to reproduce. When the cells in your body split, you grow or they replace other dead cells. Reproduction is necessary for sustaining a living organism or population.
What assists in cell division in animal cells only?
All cells are involved in cell division because that is how they reproduce. An exception are yeast cells, which divide by "budding."
What does cells reproduce?
if your asking how cells reproduce they can usually reproduce asexually[all by themselves].
Is it you or your DNA that reproduces?
You reproduce, but your DNA replicates. DNA is constantly being copied in your cells - when cells divide, the new cells contain DNA which was synthesized in the original cell. When you reproduce, it is your DNA (genes) which you pass on to your offspring. Without DNA, you would not be able to reproduce. One half of your chromosomes (23 chromosomes) are contained in the gamete (sex cell) that you provide for sexual reproduction. These chromosomes are passed on to your offspring when you reproduce.
What are reason cells divide?
That's how they reproduce.
How do prokaryotic cells reproduce and divide?
Prokaryotic cells reproduce and divide using binary fission, mitosis, and meiosis. It just depends on the species of cell.
Why do larger cells divide?
all cells divide cells divide as a way to reproduce, the same way humans have babies and fish lay eggs.
What is a haiku for meiosis?
Animals and plants, divide cells to reproduce, this is meiosis.
Does eubacteria reproduce by binary fission?
No, eukaryotic cells undergo mitosisOnly Prokaryotes divide by binary fission
Why does 1 cell divide itself into 2 identical cells?
To reproduce and grow.
What is the process by which cells reproduce?
Somatic (Body) Cells-Mitosis Gametes-Meiosis Mitosis is the process by which cells reproduce by dividing into identical daughter cells. In addition to normal body cells, mitosis is also how cancer cells divide.
When do cells split into two cells?

Looking at a cell under a microscope you note that it is a prokarote?
- prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus and eukaryotic cells do. - prokaryotic cells lack some organelles and eukaryotic cells do not. - prokaryotic cells are not found in humans and eukaryotic cells are. - prokaryotic cells are always unicellular and eukaryotic cells are often multicellular. - prokaryotic cells reproduce/divide by binary fission and eukaryotic cells reproduce/divide by mitosis/meiosis

Why is it advantages for a cell to grow only to a certain size and then divide into two smaller cells?
Cellular division is the cellular equivalent of reproduction. It is how cells reproduce.
Technical name for when a cell starts to reproduce or divide out of control?
Cancer is a condition characterized by cells dividing out of control
