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.
Prokaryotic cells reproduce and divide using binary fission, mitosis, and meiosis. It just depends on the species of cell.
the way prokaryotes reproduce
Fission
Mitosis :)
prokaryiotic cells do produce asexually and sexually
Yes, prokaryotic cells can grow and reproduce. They do this through binary fission, where the cell duplicates its genetic material and divides into two daughter cells. This process allows prokaryotic cells to increase in number and population.
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 binary fission (splitting in two).
binary fission
Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms that reproduce by cell division.
binary fission
Single celled organisms really don't think about things but when the place that they find themselves in has plenty of food and water, that will trigger the 'let's make more of us' process. The cells also wear out and have to be replaced. It is why we also reproduce.
