Question

How do prokaryotic cells reproduce? Name two prokaryotes.

Answer 1

Prokaryotic cells generally reproduce by binary fission. Formation of two daughter cells from a parent cells is called Binary fission. It takes place during favourable conditions. In the duplication of dsDNA followed by elongation of bacterial cell, formation of two infoldings, formation of two new plasma membranes and cell wall takes place. Rhizobium and E.coli are the two prokaryotes.
