Answer:

b. thick wall.

Explanation:

Endospore is a structure formed by some bacteria, that help them survive unfavourable conditions (e.g. lack of nutrients). This survival strategy of some bacteria (usually Gram+ bacteria) help them stay dormant for a while, until stressful conditions stop. A thick wall composed of many layers (exosporium, spore coat, spore cortex, core wall) of the endospore is what provides resistance to different stressful chemical and physical factors such as UV radiation, temperature, chemical damage etc.

What is cell surface to volume ratio and why is it important in cell functioning? Can it explain why cells are so small?
MrMuchimi
<span>The main reason surface area to volume ratio is important to a cell is because the surface area to volume ratio determines the rate at which cells uptake nutrients, liquids or gases. For instance, I have two organisms, A and B. Organism A has a surface area to volume ratio of 6:1, whereas organism B has a surface area to volume ratio of 3:1. As organism A has a greater surface area to volume ratio, it means that organism A will be able to take up nutrients, liquids or gases via diffusion or osmosis at a greater rate than organism B, as it has more surface with which to exchange nutrients, liquids or gases. </span>
