What replaces the mitochondria as the site of cellular respiration in prokaryotes?

Because Prokaryotic cells contain no membrane bound organelles - the only thing they can use to create the proton concentrations needed for oxidative phosphorylation (ATP production), and photosynthesis, is the plasma membrane, which isn't as exposed in Prokaryotes as in Eukaryotic cells. Prokaryotes not only have a cell wall protecting their plasma membrane, they also have a "capsule" which provides additional support and separation for the plasma membrane, allowing it to perform this important task of creating ATP.

Analogy for lysosomes in animal cells?
to serve as digestion compartments for cellular materials that have exceeded their lifetime or are otherwise no longer useful
Are FAD and NAD Nucleotides?
FAD and NAD are not nucleotides, they are electron acceptors that are used in cellular respiration. The four nucleotides present in DNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. Represented by the letters A, G, C, and T. A fifth nucleotide is present in RNA called Uracil represented by the letter U. Uracil in RNA replaces thymine in DNA when RNA polymerase translates DNA into mRNA.
What replaces magma in the Earth?

What replaces oil once it is removed from the ground?
When oil is taken out of the ground in the oil fields, new oil replaces it. When an oil well no longer produces oil, water usually replaces the space.
What is the process of which viable cells replace dead cells of the same type?
Yes, it can. It happens in the process of cell division. First the nucleus divides then each nucleus move to each end of the cell. Eventually the nucleus divides into two so it replaces the dead ones. Yes, it can. It happens in the process of cell division.

What is the main goal of cellular reproduction?
The purpose of cellular mitosis is for the growth of an organism. It produces two cells with identical genetic information, and replaces damaged or dead cells.

Why do you use anaerobic respiration?
Even though anaerobic respiration has the two significant drawbacks - lactic acid produced as a waste product; not nearly as much energy is released as with aerobic respiration - it is necessary if, for example, you are running a marathon. In this case, it won't be long before the body's demand for oxygen overtakes supply. This is where anaerobic respiration replaces aerobic respiration. Once you have finished exercising, your heart and breathing rates continue to rise, in order for you to repay your oxygen debt.
