Question

select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

most prokaryotes reproduce through binary fission, which produces choose an answer cells.
during choose an answer, two prokaryotes attach to one another and exchange choose an answer.

Explanation:

Identify the primary mode of prokaryotic reproduction

Using the Prokaryotic Reproduction and Binary Fission knowledge points
Most prokaryotes reproduce asexually through a process called binary fission.

Determine the outcome of binary fission

Using the Binary Fission knowledge point
Binary fission is an asexual process where a single cell duplicates its genetic material and divides into two equal parts, producing two genetically identical daughter cells.

Identify the gene transfer process in prokaryotes

Using the Bacterial Conjugation knowledge point
During conjugation, two prokaryotic cells temporarily join together and exchange genetic material (usually plasmid DNA) to increase genetic diversity.
