Spores are the dormant state of bacterial cell in this state they develop a protecting covering around the cell and all the cell organellis except nucleus and other esstional organallis for living get dissappear.
The protective covering helps in enduring from harsh environment condition as low water aviability or high temp. etc.

∙ 14y agospores are also known as endospores. Endospores are produced by Gram-positive bacteria from the Firmicute phylum that forms when a bacterium produces a thick internal wall that encloses its DNA and part of its cytoplasm. Examples include, but are not limited to, Bacillus and Clostridium.

∙ 12y agoThe bacteria must feel threatened by it's environment. This usually means the nutrient supply the bacteria is using (food, minerals, oxygen, etc.) is dwindling. This is shown by an endospore plate, which is used in labs to trick bacteria into thinking they are starving by flooding their environment with manganese.

Small rounded thick-walled resting cell?
I believe that you are referring to a bacterial endospore. Only a small number of bacteria can produce these (Gram-positive Firmicutes). Endospores are very tough and allow the bacteria that can produce them to survive high temperatures, pressures, drought, etc.
Can pseudomonas aeruginosa produce endospores?
No, Staphylococcus Aureus is a gram positive facultative anaerobe. It has a cell wall surrounding a peptidoglycan layer, however does not produce an endospore like many other gram positive bacteria. Staphylococcus Aureus is a cocci shaped bacteria with pyogenic properties.
What is the function of endospore in a cell?
Endospores enable bacteria to lie dormant for extended periods
What is an endospore?
it's a small asexual spore that is formed by some bacteria and contains a copy of chromosome.
Most bacteria are surrounded by a rigid protective structure called the?
cell wall
Does the salmonella bacteria produce an endospore if so under what conditions?
no

When conditions become unfavorable some bacteria produce a small internal resting cell called a capsule true or false?
false endospore
Is Endospore Formation a good bacteria or bad?
bad
What is a dormant bacteria called?
an endospore
What do bacteria form in order to remain dormant for years?
An endospore
What are produced by some bacteria when their environment becomes unsuitable?
endospore
Can pseudomonas aeruginosa produce endospores?
No, Staphylococcus Aureus is a gram positive facultative anaerobe. It has a cell wall surrounding a peptidoglycan layer, however does not produce an endospore like many other gram positive bacteria. Staphylococcus Aureus is a cocci shaped bacteria with pyogenic properties.
What can Bacteria form to survive when envioromental conditions are severe?
When growing conditions are not right, many bacteria form
What is the proces of sporulation?
In bacteria, sporulation is the process of endospore formation which takes place inside Gram positive bacteria.
What resistant forms of bacteria are produced by gram resistant bacilli of the most dangerous disease causing bacteria?
endospore
What is the function of endospore in a cell?
Endospores enable bacteria to lie dormant for extended periods
