Is bacterial endosporulation a reproductive mechanism?
BethanyFrank
No. Endosporulation is the process where bacteria encapsulates itself within an endospore - it's a form of protection against an extreme range environmental stressors. Sporulation on the other hand is the act of producing spores of the bacteria, and that IS a reproductive mechanism.

What phage in the reproductive cycle kills the bacterial host cell?
lytic
What bacterial infection that affects the reproductive organs of both males and females?
chlamydia
Which reproductive isolating mechanism is primarily restricted to animals?
The behavior isolation is the reproductive isolating mechanism that is primarily restricted to animals. In behavioral isolation, animals have unique courtship rituals such as mating dances and breeding calls.
The term reproductive isolation mechanism refers to?
a blockage of gene flow between populations
What is the meaning for adaptive traits of reproduction?
A reproductive adaption is considered be a peculiarity of the reproductive mechanism within a species. This results in the species, whether plant or animal, to fit in better within its environment.
What is endosporulation?
Formation of spore inside the bacterium is called endosporulation as in bacilli .
Which reproductive isolating mechanism is mostly restricted to animals?
The reproductive isolating mechanism that is mostly restricted to animals is behavioral. Reproductive isolation is also referred to as hybridization barriers.
Mechanism for when anatomical differences prevent mating?
Mechanical reproductive isolating mechanism

What reproductive mechanism does a haplontic animal grow?
Mitosis is the reproductive mechanism by which a haplontic animal grows. Mitosis is the process in the cell cycle by which the chromosomes in the cell nucleus are separated into two identical sets of chromosomes, each in its own nucleus.
The term reproductive isolation mechanism refers to?
a blockage of gene flow between populations
What is the reproductive cycle of bacteria?
Bacterial cells divide by binary fission, which is preceded by replication of the bacterial chromosome. From a single origin of replication, DNA synthesis progresses in both directions around the circular chromosome.
What practices should boys and girls do to keep their reproductive organs healthy?
Regular washing with an anti-bacterial soap.
Why are bacterial spores not considered to be true reproductive bo?
Bacterial spore are not true reproductive structures as in reproduction there is the formation of many cell from one that is either by mitosis or meosis but in endospores there is only the modification occurs in bacterial cell which makes it resistant to temprature fluctuations and to certain chemicals. This endospore when get favourable condition againd change in complete bacterial cell, it is just conversion of one form of preexisting cell not the formation of new cell as occurs in reproduction.
What are needed for bacterial conjugation pili or flagella?
Pili. Flagella provide the mechanism of motility but does not attach to other bacterias.
