Depending on shape of Bacteria it is divided into

Bacilli (Bacteria which is in the form of 'rod' shape),
Cocci (Bacteria in the form of 'spherical' shape),
Vibrios (Bacteria in the form of 'comma' shaped which are resembles to rod shape),
Spirilla (Bacteria in the form of 'spiral' shaped).

And based on the arrangement of cells they are classified as

Mono (to which are arranged in the form of single form),
Diplo (to which are arranged in the form of double cells together),
Strepto (to which are arranged in the form of chain form),
Staphylo (to which are arranged in the form of bunch or clumps form).


Exceptions:

Pleomorphic (which are not present in proper shape. eg.Mycoplasma),
Cocobasillus (Bacteria which normally present in rod shape but in corner are in slightly round in shape. eg.Bacillus anthracis).

How does cell division of bacteria influence grouping of cells?

Cell division in bacteria, termed binary fission, leads to the formation of two identical daughter cells. This process allows bacteria to rapidly multiply and form groups or colonies. As these cells continue to divide, they can form various arrangements such as pairs, chains, clusters, or biofilms, depending on the species and environmental conditions.
