When a cell produce an endospores has that cell reproduced explain?

Endospore formation has not been considered as a mode of reproduction. During adverse conditions, vegetative cells form endospore, which on the availability of favourable conditions will absorb water and germinate to form the vegetative cells again. Endosopres are thick walled structures. Under unfavourable conditions the endospore are non porous and resistant to high salt and acidic conditions which the normal vegetative cells are sensitive to. Often the vegetative cell loses the major part of its cytoplasm to form an endospore. Thus the endospore consists of only the genetic material surrounded by minimum quantity of cytoplasm.

What would not be found in the cytoplasm of a bacterial cell A endospores B ribosomal RNA C nucleoid D porins?
endospores
How many chromosomes are in an asexually reproduced cell?
There are 24.
Which chemical agents is fairly effective against endospores and mycobacteria?
One chemical agent that is fairly effective against endospores and mycobacteria is hydrogen peroxide. It is a powerful oxidizing agent that can disrupt the cell walls and membranes of these microorganisms, leading to their inactivation. Other chemical agents such as chlorine dioxide and peracetic acid can also be effective against endospores and mycobacteria.
Is bacillus megaterium a spore or a vegetative cell?
It is an endospore former, but it will only form endospores when the environmental conditions are harsh. Thus, it can be a vegetative cell or spore depending on environemental conditions.
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.
Where are endospores located within vegetative cells?
Endospores can form within different areas of the vegetative cell. They can be central, subterminal, or terminal. Central endospores are located within the middle of the vegetative cell. Terminal endospores are located at the end of the vegetative cell. Subterminal endospores are located between the middle and the end of the cell.

Difference between endospores and vegetative cell?
Endospores are thick-coated, resistant cells produced within a bacterial cell that has been exposed to harsh conditions. Endospores are inert and can endure extreme conditions like radiation, heat and cold, absence of nutrients and water. When conditions are good, they produce vegetative cells and thrive. When condition turn unfavorable, endospores are produced again and they remain inert. Vegetative cells are any cells of plants or animals that do not participate in reproduction. These are vulnerable to external changes and react easily. They cannot thrive in unfavorable conditions.

What is the function of endospore in a cell?
Endospores enable bacteria to lie dormant for extended periods
Does every cell in a cotton plant produce cotton fibers?
No. Cotton plants are reproduced through their seeds. Commercial cotton -- the fibre -- is harvested from the cotton bolls what grow on the shrub.
Where are new cells reproduced in plants?
by cell division
