Red spore in rain water

In biology, spore is a cell or organ (multicellular) vegetative propagation or reproduction. It is one of the stages of the life cycle of many plants, algae, fungi, protozoa and even some.
The spores may form a new individual without fertilization.
Some spores, including those of bacteria or fungi, possess outstandingly remarkable strength: they can survive for long periods, even under adverse conditions, and allow the dispersal of the species, sometimes at great distances from its point home, or long after the disappearance of the "parent ".
