Answer
a cocci looks like a ball. Two balls together gives you Diplococci (pairs). A chain of balls give you Streptococci. A cluster of grapes formation gives you Staphylococci. Packets of 4 cocci are called tetrads.

Which protein decides shape of bacteria?
MreB is the most common one, and gives bacteria their tubular form. Then there is Crescentin, which is involved in formation of the crescent shape of some bacteria.
What shape is a rod bacteria?
Bacillus
What are the three categories for bacteria based on shape?
The simplest shape is a round sphere or ball. Bacteria formed like this are called cocci (singular coccus). The next simplest shape is cylindrical. Cylindrical bacteria are called rods (singular rod). Some bacteria are basically rods but instead of being straight they are twisted or bent or curved, sometimes in a spiral - these bacteria are called spirilla (singular spirillum). Spirochaetes are tightly coiled up bacteria.
What shape do bacilli bacteria have?
Bacilli are rod-shaped bacteria.
Are all bacteria the same shape?
no

What shape is strep throat bacteria?
Streptococcus, the bacteria that causes strep throat, is spherical (cocci) in shape.
What do you call spherical shape bacteria?

Microscopic single-celled simple plants?
Bacteria or bacterium are the microscopic single-celled simple plants some are harmful and some are helpful. Bacteria constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms.
