Endospores
Some bacteria, like many Bacilllus species, form endospores when they run out of food. Endospores are resistant to heat, dessication, weak acid, etc.
Fungi and Bacillus are capable of producing endospores. The endospores provide a great "niche" for microbes to chill until conditions are optimal. However, sometimes heat activates these endospores. Meaning, the Bacillus is able to divide and replicate after heat because the heat activated the endospore.
