Resources Stationary Phase?  Limited  Begin Accumulating Waste Products

The stationary phase is caused by limited resources, accumulation of waste products, an unfavorable environment for cell division, and increased competition for remaining resources; it is also typically when endospore formation occurs.

La fase estacionaria se produce cuando los recursos son limitados, se acumulan productos de desecho, el entorno se vuelve desfavorable para la división celular y la competencia por los recursos restantes es mayor; es también el momento de la formación de endosporas.

Front What are the causes of the stationary phase? 
Back 1. resources become limited 
2. Begin accumulating waste products, environment unfavorable for cell division 
3. creates greatest competition for remaining resources
4. Typical time of endospore formation, if possible
