When conditions become unfavorable some bacteria produce a small internal resting cell called a capsule true or false?
false endospore
A structure in some bacteria that is resistant to adverse environmental factors is a?
endospore
What is a dormant bacteria called?
an endospore
What mechanism allows both bacteria and viruses to survive harsh environments e.g in the gut?
I'm guess is that... the bacteria and viruses forma a thick coat, called an endospore inside them that allows them to survive harsh enviorments while making them dormant (resting cells) at the same time. once the envorment becomes suitable again, the endospore deteriorates and thus the bacteria or virus once again becomes prominant ( non- resting, it can move around now). i think soooooooooo
What structural charateristics of archaebacteria allows them to live in extreme environments?
This is a sac like organelle/structure called the endospore which is found in the nucleoid region of a particular archaebacteria. It contains the major chromosome that dictates all necessary cellular functions such as metabolism. It(endospore) is enclosed by a durable wall and even when the outer cell is destroyed the endospore contained survives all sorts of trauma, including lack of food,water, extreme fluctuations in temperature and most toxins. I mean you can't even boil some prokaryotes. They are freakin' crazy!This is a sac like organelle/structure called the endospore which is found in the nucleoid region of a particular archaebacteria.

What is a small rounded thick walled resting cell?
endospore

false endospore
Endospore-formers?
resting or dormant type of cell that is highly resistant to environmental extremes (heat, dessication, oxygen, radiation, disinfectants).
A structure in some bacteria that is resistant to adverse environmental factors is a?
endospore
Most bacteria are surrounded by a rigid protective structure called the?
cell wall
What is a dormant bacteria called?
an endospore
What is endospore formation is called?
The process of endospore formation within a vegetation cell takes several hours and is known as sporulation or sporogenesis.

Type of spore that can remain dormant until favorable conditions for growth arise?
A type of spore that can remain dominant until favorable conditions for growth arise is called an endospore. It refers to an asexual spore that develops inside some bacterial cells.
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.

When endospore form?
Endospores form during a period called binary fission.
