Bacteria divide by a process called binary fission where one bacterial cell will replicate its
DNA as the cell elongates, then the cell will divide into 2 identical daughter cells. Assuming
favorable conditions, bacteria divide every 20 minutes. If one bacterial cell replicated
according to this condition, how many bacterial cells would one expect to find at the end of
two hours and 20 minutes (140 minutes)?

Answer:

The usual method of prokaryote cell division is termed binary fission. The prokaryotic chromosome is a single DNA molecule that first replicates, then attaches each copy to a different part of the cell membrane. When the cell begins to pull apart, the replicate and original chromosomes are separated.
