Yes, gonorrhea is caused by cocci. The diplococcus that causes gonorrhea is Neisseria gonorrhea.
Cocci and bacilli do not cause chlamydia. Cocci cause gonorrhea.
Cocci, which refer to spherical bacteria, can be part of the normal flora in the human body and are not inherently sexually transmitted. However, some pathogenic cocci, like Neisseria gonorrhoeae (which causes gonorrhea) and Treponema pallidum (which causes syphilis), are sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Transmission typically occurs through sexual contact rather than the bacteria themselves being classified as cocci. It's important to practice safe sex to reduce the risk of STIs.
Gonorrhea is one, Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy is another. Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease caused by a bacteria, whilst BSE is a neurological diseased, thought to be caused by Prions.
No. Impetigo is usually caused by Staphylococcus aureus, gram positive cocci.
gonorrhea.

Tuberculosis is caused by a bacterium, known as the tuberculosis bacillus.
Most STD's are caused by Bacteria. To give a few examples: Syphilis, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia... (etc)
Sure! Three pathogenic bacteria and their respective shapes are: Escherichia coli (E. coli) - rod-shaped Streptococcus pyogenes - spherical (cocci) Mycobacterium tuberculosis - rod-shaped (bacilli)
Yes, Levaquin (levofloxacin) is effective against a wide range of gram-positive cocci, including Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae. It is commonly used to treat infections caused by these bacteria.
As far as STDs, the bacterial infections are chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis.
The scientific name for cocci is coccus (plural: cocci). They are a type of spherical-shaped bacteria.
