main shapes of bacteria
1)Spherical: circular
2)Triangular: bent and curved in three places
3) Retangular: they have a "boxy" shape
i thought the first answer was wrong so heres the ones from my notes.
Main Shapes of Bacteria
1)Rod shaped (Bacilli)
2)Sphere shaped (Cocci)
3)Spiral shaped (Spirilla)

∙ 14y agoit is based on their characteristics.one of the most important criteria is cell shape.they are also classify according to size structure of the cell walls,ability to move and how they obtain food.

2. simple organisation (unicellular)
3. they are ubiquitous

What is the stain most useful in clinicians to decide for bacterial infection?
Methylene blue a basic stain is generally used to identify the external morphology of bacteria.The other stain which is used as differential stain and which can also differentiate the baceteia on the basis of their cell wall is gram stain i.e. Crystal voilet and is counter stained with Saffranine
What type of immune response would occur if bacteria invaded your lymph?
Since the bacteria has already invaded your body, the second stage of defense is required. The lymphocytes will engulf the bacteria and digest it using lysosomes. When the bacteria is gone, fragments of the bacteria are left behind by the lymphocyte to allow some T-cells to identify the bacteria's antigen.
What does gram negative on a serratia marcescens gram stain mean?
Bacteria are gram positive or gram negative. Serratia happens to be a gram negative bacteria. They appear pink on a gram stain. Gram positive bacteria stain to a purple color on a gram stain. We can classify and ID bacteria using their gram stain and shape. Some antibiotics only work on gram negative bacteria and some only work on gram positive bacteria. It helps a doctor know which antibiotic to use.
To classify flowering plants into monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous using common characteristics?

Qualitative
What are customized bacteria?
tha bacteria resulted from bioengineering having desired traits. The traits are to be introduced using genomics tools.
What is used by scientists to identify and classify organisms using descriptions of characteristics?
i recommend you use your science text book!
Are dichotomous keys based on a phylogenetic or morphological approach to classification?
Dichotomous keys are typically based on a morphological approach to classification, using observable physical characteristics to identify and classify organisms. This method involves sorting organisms into groups based on shared physical traits rather than evolutionary relationships.

How do petrologists classify?
By using a microscope and seeing them.
What is the point of using a case control study?
The point of using a case control study is typically to identify factors that may cause a medical condition by comparing people with the condition and people who do not but share common personal traits.
How is analytical profile index read?
Using an API 20 E sheet.. then you use the book containing different API 7 digit numbers to identify your bacteria
What type of characteristics are used to classify organisms today?
In the past, classification relied on body structure, internal and external, as well as mode of reproduction. The change now is that scientists are using DNA to fine tune classification.
