What special defenses do spores and capsules have?
Bacteria can form capsules and spores. A capsule is a protective layer around some bacteria. They can be virulent as they can resist the body's defence mechanism. Bacteria can change into bacterial spores when the environmental conditions are unfavourable. In this condition bacteria are inactive. When the environmental conditions become more suitable the bacteria can become active and cause disease. Bacterial spores are extremely resistant and can survive most forms of disinfection and inadequate sterilisation
