the rhodospirillum moves by swimming and using there waste to push them
No.
rhodospirillum rubrum are bacteria, meaning that they are prokaryotes. As a rule of thumb, most single-celled organisms are prokaryotes.
Rhodospirillum rubrum is a photosynthetic bacterium typically found in aquatic environments or soil. It is not known to cause diseases in humans.
The cell morphology can be spiral or rod shape.
Rhodospirillum rubrum primarily reproduces asexually through binary fission, where a parent cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells. Sexual reproduction, such as conjugation, has not been reported in this species.
Rhodospirillum rubrum can be grown in liquid or solid media under anaerobic or microaerophilic conditions. The ideal growth temperature is around 30°C, and the pH range is typically between 6.8-7.5. Rich media, such as RCV (Rhodospirillum growth medium) or YP (yeast extract-peptone) agar, are commonly used for cultivation.

By Spirochaetes, a helical bacteria which have a specialized internal structure known as the axial filament which is responsible for rotation of the cell in a spiral fashion and consequent locomotion, sort of like a corkscrew motion. Credit: MicrobiologyBytes, Bacterial Mobility
Some diseases that are thought to be cased by Rhodospirillum rubrum are: Tinea (ringworm), Onychomycosis (nail fungus), Tinea Pedis (Athlete's foot), Tinea Capitis (ringworm of the scalp), Foot Dermatoses (unspecified diseases of the foot), Dermatomycoses (superficial infections of the skin), and Hand Dermatoses.

R, rubrum is Gram negative. Why? Because after the decolorizing agent Ethonal is added, it removes the purple from the the cell walls.. When the secondary or counterstain, safranin is added, the cell stains pink.
The rubrum means maple.
