In binary fission, a parent cell divides to form two daughter cells. Thus, bacterial population increase exponentially. Note the table below, demonstrating how quickly a population of bacteria can explode from just a single cell. The generation (first, second, third, etc) is denoted n and the number of cells at a given time is N [...]

Prokaryotes use binary fission. Two cells arise from one. Cells elongate to twice their original length, and the cytoplasmic membrane forms a septum which separates the cells. A generation is when1cells divides to form two. Polymerizations reactions are macromolecules from monomers (most common reaction). Fts proteins are essential for growth, prokaryotic, interact to form division [...]
