Shape: Bacteria have three main shapes, they can be cocci (round), bacillus (rod-like), spirochete (helical or spiral). They can also be club shaped, and vibrio shaped (like a crescent moon or curved rod).
Cocci can be in singles, clumps, pairs, tetrads (four), and chains. Bacillus can be in singles, pairs, and chains.
Size: Bacteria can be anywhere between 5 and 0.5 µm.
Structure: Cells with a protein base wall, no central nucleus (instead having a central circular chromosome), and no membrane-bound organelles. They can have flagellum for motility.
There are 3 basic shapes of bacteria: spherical (round), rod-shaped, and spiral-shaped.
Rods--------Bacilli
spheres/round-------------Cocci
spirals-----------spirilli
Bacteria can be of various shapes they are;
spherical- coccus
rod like- bacillus
spiral- spirillum
filamentous
ball, rod, and spiral.
Rod, spiral, sphere
3 shapes of bacteria are spirilla (spiral), bacilla (rod-shaped), and cocci (spherical).
shapes
The three basic shapes of bacteria are spherical, rod and spiral. Coccus bacteria is spherical in shape, Bacillus is rod-shaped and Spirillum is spiral-shaped.
There are different ways to classify bacteria, because there are many functions to bacteria. A phenotypic system is one way to classify bacteria.
It is important to be able to identify different colony shapes, sizes, and edges is a way to learn and identify the name of the bacteria. A selective medium is a nutritional for bacteria to grow while inhibiting other bacteria growth.

shapes
They are about the size of a bacteria, but they have different shapes.
Coccus, Bacillus, and Spirullum.
They are bacteria w/ varying shapes, not just one..
The three main shapes of bacteria are; Bacillus = rod shaped bacteria Coccus = round shaped bacteria Spirillia = spiral shaped bacteria All bacteria are of one of these general shapes.
The three basic shapes I know of are...., Bacillus. Rod shapes. Cocci. Round shaped. Spirillia. Spiral shaped.
round square triangular that's It

bacteria have cell walls, making them keep their shape, while most protists have either pellicles or cell membranes which can change shape.
