Bacteria reproduce using two basic methods: Asexual reproduction and Sexual reproduction. Bacteria can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Sexual reproduction involves the joining of two parents and the exchanging of genetic materials. Asexual reproduction involves only one individual or parent. The offspring generated by asexual reproduction are exact duplicates of the parents.Binary Fission is the process by which a bacteria splits into two cells. Each cell gets an exact copy of the parent cell's genetic material. I hope this answered your question! <3

They undergo binary fission:

After DNA is replicated, the two copies stick to the membrane.

Then a cell wall, capsules, and membranes are made in the middle.

Then it splits in 2.

you are welcome
