Answer:
here is your answer :-)
Explanation:
An endospore is a dormant, tough, and non-reproductive structure produced by some bacteria in the phylum Firmicutes.
It is a stripped-down, dormant form to which the bacterium can reduce itself.
Endospore formation is usually triggered by a lack of nutrients, and usually occurs in gram-positive bacteria.
