The prokaryotic cell cycle has five distinct stages. What would be the correct order of these five stages (from beginning to end) using the five statements below? A: As the cell increases in size, new plasma membrane is added, pushing chromosomes apart. B: The parent cell divides into two daughter cells, with each one genetically identical to the parent cell and containing a single, circular chromosome. C: The single prokaryotic chromosome is usually attached to the plasma membrane of the cell. D: The chromosome replicates, producing two identical copies that attach to plasma membrane at nearby, but separate, sites. E: The plasma membrane grows inward between the two chromosome copies.

C--D--A--E--B

Explanation:C: The single prokaryotic chromosome is usually attached to the plasma membrane of the cell

D: The chromosome replicates, producing two identical copies that attach to plasma membrane at nearby, but separate, sites.

A: As the cell increases in size, new plasma membrane is added, pushing chromosomes apart.

E: The plasma membrane grows inward between the two chromosome copies.

B: The parent cell divides into two daughter cells, with each one genetically identical to the parent cell and containing a single, circular chromosome.

Prokaryotes usually contains a single strand of DNA,which is not separated from other organelles in the cytoplasm.they reproduce by asexually by binary fission. A process which occurs rapidly
