Original: Bacteria having a centrally placed endospore include Bacillus cereus , and those having a subterminal endospore include Bacillus subtilis . Sometimes the endospore can be so large the cell can be distended around the endospore , this is typical of Clostridium tetani .
Simplified: Bacteria that can form endospore , but are not in the endospore state are known to be in their vegetative state .
