Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the key characteristics of bacteria by recalling their cellular structure and reproduction methods.
Understand that bacteria are prokaryotic organisms, meaning they do not have a membrane-bound nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles.
Recognize that bacteria are unicellular, which means they consist of a single cell rather than multiple cells.
Recall that bacteria reproduce primarily through asexual methods such as binary fission, not sexual reproduction.
