Dormnat structures in bacteria formed in response to adverse conditions?
Bacterial endospores are dormant structures formed in response to adverse conditions such as nutrient depletion or extreme temperatures. They have a tough protective coat that allows bacteria to survive in harsh environments until conditions improve. Spores can germinate and resume growth when conditions become more favorable.
In bacterial endocarditis the mass of bacteria that is formed is called what?
vegetation
What is bacterial spore?
Bacterial spores are resistant and dormant structures formed in certain Bacteria and are ment for survival . They are of 2 types endospore and exospores .
What is the medical significance of Bacterial spores?
Bacterial spores are far more resistant to disinfectants than non-spore forming bacteria. As a result, bacterial spores are more virulent and therefore more capable of causing disease since they can survive most methods that kill 'normal' bacteria...
What is the bacterial growth phase after death phase?
If endospores are formed there can be the survival phase.
Why are endospores not considered a type of reproduction?
A bacterial spore is a sort of hibernation for a bacterial cell while conditions are less than ideal. When conditions improve, the same cell emerges from the spore rather than a daughter cell.
Why are bacterial spores are referred as endospores?
Bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most of its habitats. Under optimal conditions, bacteria can grow and divide extremely rapidly, and bacterial populations can double as quickly as every 9.8 minutes.
What is an endospore?
An endospore is a dormant, highly resistant structure formed by certain bacteria as a way to survive unfavorable conditions. It consists of a thick protective coat surrounding the bacterial cell's DNA and essential structures. Endospores can germinate back into active bacteria when conditions become favorable again.
What groups were formed to improve conditions for workers?
Labor unions were formed to improve conditions for workers in the late 1800s.
Compare and contrast a zygospore a cyst and an endospore?
A zygospore is a resting spore formed from the fusion of gametes in some fungi and algae. A cyst is a protective structure formed by some microorganisms in response to harsh environmental conditions. An endospore is a dormant, resistant structure formed by certain bacteria to survive adverse conditions. Both cysts and endospores help organisms withstand environmental stress, while zygospores are involved in sexual reproduction.
How does a new cell formed by mitosis formed with the original cell?
its the same
Does Mycobacterium smegmatis have endospores?
No, Mycobacterium smegmatis does not form endospores. Endospores are typically formed by some bacterial species in response to harsh environmental conditions as a survival mechanism, but Mycobacterium species, including M. smegmatis, do not produce endospores.
