What causes a cell to change shape in bacteria?
Cells in bacteria can change shape in response to environmental conditions, nutrient availability, and cell division. Changes in cell shape can be facilitated by the rearrangement of the cytoskeleton, modifications in cell wall synthesis, or alterations in cell surface proteins. These shape changes allow bacteria to adapt to different environments and optimize their growth and survival.
