Why is cell division simpler in prokaryotes than in eukaryotes?

Eukaryotes are about 10 times bigger than eukaryotes, and eukaryotes have nuclei. There's more work to cut a eukaryotic cell in half than in prokaryotes.


Why is meiosis called reductional cell division?

Meiosis cell division is called reduction division because in this cell division the cells got from the parents cell is divided into half. So the daughter cells is haploid(n). Thus, meiosis cell division is called reduction division.

What is the difference between fission and mitotic cell division?

Binary fission is the form of asexual reproduction in single-celled organisms by which one cell divides into two cells of the same size, used by most prokaryotes. This process results in the reproduction of a living cell by division into two equal or near-equal parts. Cell division is a process by which a cell, called the parent cell, divides into two cells, called daughter cells. Cell division is usually a small segment of a larger cell cycle. In meiosis however, a cell is permanently transformed and cannot divide again.


Cell division in prokaryotes is best characterized as?

a replication of the DNA strand followed by cell elongation and division.
