Hi.  I've been to your website before and i find it helpful a lot.  Thus, out 
of curiosity i was wondering whether Prokaryote cells create new cells through 
cell division, according to the cell theory like eukaryote cells do.  I know 
that eukaryote cells contain organelles such as a nucleus etc.  also, when the 
cell divides in half, the nucleus splits.  but since a prokaryote cell does not 
contain nuclei, does it split to form another cell?  Thankyou for help!
