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.

Why is resting stage a bad name for interphase?
The resting stage is a bad name for interphase because the cell is not resting. The cell is still functioning and is preparing for mitosis.
What is a rounded cell?
A round cell is a small lymphocyte or a closely related cell that especially occurs in an area of chronic infection or as the typical cell of some sarcomas.
What is the electrical potential across the cell membrane of a nerve cell or muscle cell when the cell is not active?
resting potential
Which stage of mitosis is called resting stage?
It's interphase, though ironically, the cell is actually quite busy during this phase trying to perform its normal functions. It is called the resting phase because it is "resting" from cell division.
What is the name for the resting period between cell division?
Interphase is a period of a cell's life. It used to be called the resting period, but that name was discarded when scientists realized how much activity takes place during its time.~Alice
What is a small rounded thick walled resting cell?
endospore
Narrow elongated thickwalled cells found in xylem?
TracheidsA cell in the xylem of vascular plants.
Why is a blood cell rounded?
Ablood cell is a rounded so that it can move easily through small blood vessels.
When a cell is at rest?
resting potential
Why is resting stage a bad name for interphase?
The resting stage is a bad name for interphase because the cell is not resting. The cell is still functioning and is preparing for mitosis.
When conditions become unfavorable some bacteria produce a small internal resting cell called a capsule true or false?
false endospore
When a neuron is resting the inside of the cell membrane is?
When a neuron is resting then inside of the cell membrane is more negative than outside.
What is a rounded cell?
A round cell is a small lymphocyte or a closely related cell that especially occurs in an area of chronic infection or as the typical cell of some sarcomas.
What is the electrical potential across the cell membrane of a nerve cell or muscle cell when the cell is not active?
resting potential
What is the difference in electrical charge across the cell membrane of a resting neuron is called?
This is the definition of "resting potential".
What is a dormant resting state of a protozoan cell?
cyst
What ion determines the resting membrane potential of nerve and muscle?
The concentrations on Na+ outside the cell and concentrations of K+ inside the cell determine the resting membrane potential.
