Introduction:
Cell division is a method by which a single cell divides into two daughter cells. The two daughter cells, each receive the genetic material present in the single parent cell. This duplication of single cell into two occurs by a series of stages that is the life cycle of every single cell. The life cycle of every single cell begins and ends with cell division.
Explanation of Solution
The prokaryotic cells, like bacteria and archaea, divide by a process called binary fission. In this type of cell division, the cell replicates its genetic material, and as a replication proceeds further the cell increases in size symmetrically. Cell division starts with the formation of new membrane and cell wall material at the midpoint of the parental cell and divides into two daughter cells. Each daughter cell receives one copy of parent DNA.
