What process can one celled organisms produce by?
Many just split into two in a process called binary fission. If conditions are just right, one bacterium could become a BILLION (1,000,000,000) bacteria in just 10 hours through binary fission.Sometimes bacteria do have a form of sex called conjugation. One bacterium reaches out to another using a thread-like structure called a pilus. The first bacterium transfers part of its DNA to the other bacterium through the pilus.By this exchange, bacteria can quickly create or pass along new traits that help them adapt to different environments.So why aren't we up to our elbows in bacteria, fungi and protists if microbes can reproduce so quickly?It's because conditions are almost never perfect in the real world. Once there are too many microbes in one place, food runs out, their wastes pile up, they crowd each other and eventually they start dying off.
