How do bacteria produce?

Answered

Bacteria reproduce primarily through binary fission, an asexual process in which a single bacterial cell divides into two identical daughter cells. During binary fission, the bacterial DNA is replicated, and the cell elongates. The cell membrane pinches inward, eventually splitting the cytoplasm and separating the two new cells. This method of reproduction allows for rapid population growth under favorable conditions, where one cell can divide into millions in a short period.
