Are pumpkins eukaryotic or prokaryotic?

Pumpkins are eukaryotic, meaning they have cells with a nucleus that contains their genetic material. Prokaryotic organisms, on the other hand, lack a true nucleus and their genetic material is found in the cytoplasm.


How is an endospore formed?

Endospore formation, or sporulation, is a survival mechanism used by some bacteria to protect their genetic material during harsh conditions. The process involves a series of steps where a bacteria cell produces a thick-walled structure called an endospore, within which the DNA and other essential cellular components are enclosed. This endospore can withstand extreme conditions such as heat, radiation, and chemicals, allowing the bacteria to remain dormant until conditions become favorable again.
