Cells reproduce so that multicellular organisms have the possibility to grow and to allow damaged cells to get replaced.
Why do cells reproduce?
300
Prokaryotic cells are at a disadvantage because their DNA floats freely in thier cytoplasm which can result in more longer, serious and expensive illnesses.
Why are prokaryotic cells at a disadvantage?
