Cell division occurs in both domains for a common reason, for reproduction purposes.

Explanation:

Prokaryotes are single cell organisms, including bacteria, which divides through binary fission where the daughter cell is a complete replica of the father cell.

Eukaryotes are multi-cell organism, which reproduce either through mitosis or meoisis. Meoisis is sexual reproduction while mitosis is asexual reproduction.
