Prokaryotes can reproduce by either binary fission or conjugation. Binary Fission is asexual reproduction where the cell splits in two, and conjugation works through the exchange in DNA between two cells.
binary fusion
By asexual reproduction called Binary Fission.
You start with 1 circular chromosome
Duplicate the chromosome
The cell elongates and the chromosomes are pulled apart
The cell wall is separated
Result: 2 genetically identical cells.
Through Binary Fusion. (With asexual reproduction) The 2 daughter cells are genetically identical to each other and to the parent cell.
Yes because some prokaryotes take part in conjugation. Where genetic information is transferred from one cell to another by the hollow bridge.
Most bacteria reproduce by a process called fission
Yes, they can. They reproduce both asexually, through a process called binary fission, and sexually.
False they are not
False.
- 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
Plants can only have eukaryotic cells because they themselves are eukaryotic. Only a bacteria (which is a prokaryote) is able to reproduce to form another prokaryotic cell.
binary fission
Prokaryotic cells reproduce by binary fission (splitting in two).
Yes, they sure do! Think bacteria: those little boogers wouldn't cover every single surface by the billion unless they could grow and reproduce.
Prokaryotic cells reproduce and divide using binary fission, mitosis, and meiosis. It just depends on the species of cell.

binary fission
Yes all bacteria are prokaryotic. Not all bacteria reproduce by binary fission (asexual). Some reproduce sexually by extending tubes and attatching to an other bacteria cell and exchanging genetic material
Prokaryotic cells do NOT have a nucleus.
