Answer:
A
Explanation:
A vegetative cell is similar to the somatic cells in our body. They are cells of a bacterium or other organisms that actively divide instead of forming reproductive structures like spores. Vegetative cell is any other cell asides the reproductive cells in an organism. Unlike reproductive cells (spores) in some organisms which helps such organism withstand adverse condition in order to ensure germination, vegetative cells are metabolically active and hence keeps undergoing division.
When conditions are unfavorable e.g nutrient deficiency, water inavailability etc. a bacterium cell forms an endospore used to endure that period, once things go back to normal, the endospore germinates into a viable vegetative cell that can continue growth and cell division.
