Spirillum bacteria get their name from the fact that they look like spirals. They eat what many other types of bacteria eat, which is anything they can acquire, from sugar to air.
Spirillum is the name of two species of spiral shaped, Gram-negative bacteria in the family Spirillaceae. The bacteria in the family are two species, Spirillum volutans and Spirillum winogradskyi. Spirillum have been found to be the cause of rat-bite fever and Lyme disease.
bacteria kingdom
Sometimes it is hard to remember what is or is not a bacteria. 5 examples of bacteria are coccus, spirillum, vibrio, spirochete, and bacillus.
Spirilla are a group of bacteria characterized by their spiral or corkscrew type shape. Spirilla are gram-negative aerobic heterotrophic bacteria. They usually prefer an aquatic environment where the oxygen level is below that in the atmosphere. They have a rigid cell wall and use flagella (a long, lashlike appendage) on each end to move.
Coccus or cocci
spirillum
A spirillum belongs to the kingdom Bacteria. It is a type of bacteria that is characterized by its spiral shape.

No, Spirillum is a bacteria and not a virus. It basically twists like a spiral and there are 2 different species, Spirillum volutans and Spirillum winogradskyi.
Spirillum helps bacteria to move ahead.

Spirillum volutans is a type of the bacteria Spirillum.Spirillum volutans has a corkscrew shape, and little tuffs of flagella putruding out of the polar ends. It is a very large bacteria.
This is a type of meningitis caused by the bacteria spirillum serpens.
Spirilium
Sometimes it is hard to remember what is or is not a bacteria. 5 examples of bacteria are coccus, spirillum, vibrio, spirochete, and bacillus.
Based on morphology of bacteria, bacteria can classified as one of three group of coccus, bacillus, or spirillum. A coccus is a sphere. A bacillus is a rod-shaped bacterium. A spirillum is a long cell with one or more curves or coils.
