Step 1: Vegetative growth stops; DNA is duplicated.

The first image shows the vegetative cell before sporulation begins. DNA is replicated in preparation for cell division.

Step 2: A septum forms, dividing the cell asymmetrically.

The second image shows an asymmetrical septum forming, dividing the cell into two unequal compartments.

Step 3: A forespore is formed within the mother cell.

The third image depicts the smaller compartment engulfed by the larger compartment, forming the forespore within the mother cell.
