Bacteria reproduce through binary fission (cell division) and conjugation. In cell division, the bacteria duplicates its single chromosome, then divides into two different cells; this can happen at an extremely rapid rate (20 minutes). In conjugation, two cells temporarily attach, exchanging DNA; this increases genetic diversity, making the species more sustainable. Once the species detatch, they then go through cell division to reproduce.

Bacterial cells reproduce asexually by what?
Binary Fission :)
What does not have a nucleus?
bacterial cells
What does a single bacterial cell divide into during binary fission?
Binary fission produces two identical bacterial cells.
Do bakers yeast reproduce sexually or asexually or both?
Yeast can reproduce in two ways. One is when a single cell splits into two child cells. This also occurs in bacterial. The other way is when an outgrowth is formed, the nucleus divides and the new nucleus migrates to this outgrowth and splits off.
What did virchow contribute to cell theory?
He said that cells can reproduce cell
Bacterial cells reproduce asexually by?
Cell Division
Bacterial cells reproduce asexually by what?
Binary Fission :)
What happens when bacteria reproduce by binary fission?
Number of bacterial cells is doubles .
Type of cell division in which bacterial cells reproduce asexually?
binary fission
How are bacterial cell and human body cell similar?
*there are made of cells *there the basic unite of structure and function *there are cells produced from other cells
Why would you assume that an isolated colony is a pure colony of that microorganism?
Because bacterial cells reproduce and form identical daughter cells. Therefore, a single cell that is isolated away from the rest of the mixed bacterial culture will reproduce a colony of cells identical to itself. You will know that it is only that certain type of bacteria with none others mixed in, or pure :)
How do bacterial meningitis bacteria reproduce?
Bacterial Meningitis is a spore-forming bacilli. Bacteria typically reproduce by an asexual process called binary fission. Also called transverse division. A process by which one cell increases in size and forms two cells which are identical to each other.
Do bacteria reproduce by mitosis?
Yes. Bacterial reproduction most commonly occurs by a kind of cell division called binary fission. Binary fission results in the formation of two bacterial cells that are genetically identical. Binary fission is an effective way for bacteria to reproduce, however it does produce problems. Through bacterial recombination, bacteria can gain genetic variation by incorporating genes from other bacteria.
Do your brain cells reproduce?
No. Nerve cells do not reproduce.
Bacterial cells do not have a genetic material?
no, bacterial cells do not have genetic material
What process does bacterial cell reproduce?
conjugation
Do bacterial cells have a nuclues?
Bacterial cells are not eukaryotic cells, which means they do not have a nucleus. They do, however, have chromosome.
