Lets say there are 20 prokaryotes and they don't reproduce. They would die one by one until you had no prokaryotes. If they had reproduced, you would have more than 20 prokaryotes. So what I'm trying to say is that prokaryotes reproduce to keep their race alive. If humans didnt reproduce, in a while there would be no humans at all. It's the same with prokaryotes.
Hope this helped.

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.
What is describe by binary fission?
the way prokaryotes reproduce
Prokaryotic cells reproduce by a process called what?
Fission
What is the process through which prokaryotic organisms reproduce asesually?
Mitosis :)
Is a prokaryotic cell asexual or sexual?
prokaryiotic cells do produce asexually and sexually
A prokaryotic cell reproduces through a process called what?
Prokaryotic cells reproduce by binary fission (splitting in two).
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
Are prokaryotic bacteria cells reproduced by 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 reproduce by a process called?
binary fission
What is the process through which prokaryotic organism reproduce asexually?
binary fission
Which has only prokaryotic cells?
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.
What prokaryote has a cell wall and reproduces by cell division?
Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms that reproduce by cell division.
