Khan Academy: Prokaryote Reproduction and Biotechnology
Learn how prokaryotes reproduce by binary fission, and find out the use of E. coli bacteria in molecular biology.
Oswego City School District
Regents Exam Prep Center: Reproduction: Asexual Reproduction
Review of asexual reproduction shows how an offspring is produced from one parent. The methods of asexual reproduction (binary fission, budding, sporulation, and mitosis) are explained briefly accompanied by illustrations.

Biology Wise: How Do Bacteria Reproduce
Bacteria mainly reproduce asexually but some also use sexual reproduction. Two forms of asexual reproduction in bacteria are described - binary fission and budding, as well as sexual reproduction.
BiologyWise
Biology Wise: Types of Cell Division
Discusses the three methods of cell division - mitosis, meiosis, and binary fission.
