A structure produced by prokaryotes, such as bacteria, in unfavorable conditions; a thick-wall encloses the DNA and some of the cytoplasm.
A
Endospore
B
Parasite
C
Flagellum
D
Gill
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Some bacteria are able to produce a thick wall around them-selves when environmental conditions are unfavorable. Inside this thick-walled structure, the bacterium produces a dormant form called an endospore.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cell Structure Prokaryotes have a nucleoid (nuclear body) rather than an enveloped nucleus and lack membrane-bound cytoplasmic organelles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Prokaryotic cell walls may be composed of peptidoglycan (bacteria) or pseudopeptidoglycan (archaea). Gram-positive bacterial cells are characterized by a thick peptidoglycan layer, whereas gram-negative bacterial cells are characterized by a thin peptidoglycan layer surrounded by an outer membrane.
