Which is true about bacteria a) all bacteria cause diseases in animals b) bacteria have complex internal structures c) bacteria help break down some foods. D) all bacteria are spiral in shape?

The correct statement is c) bacteria help break down some foods. Many bacteria play essential roles in digestion, particularly in the human gut, where they help break down complex carbohydrates and synthesize vitamins. While some bacteria can cause diseases, not all do, and bacteria generally have simpler internal structures compared to eukaryotic cells. Additionally, bacteria come in various shapes, including rod, cocci, and spiral, so not all are spiral in shape.


Are all bacteria the same shape?

No, bacteria come in various shapes such as spherical (cocci), rod-shaped (bacilli), spiral (spirilla), and comma-shaped (vibrios). Each shape has unique characteristics that help classify and identify different types of bacteria.


What is the body type for all bacteria?

Bacteria are classified based on their shape into three main body types: cocci (spherical), bacilli (rod-shaped), and spirilla (spiral-shaped).


What is spirilli bacteria?

Spirilli bacteria are spiral-shaped bacteria that belong to the phylum Proteobacteria. They can be found in various environments including water, soil, and the human body. Some examples of spirilli bacteria include species like Spirillum volutans and Aquaspirillum serpens.

You want to know the shape size and habitat of spiral bacteria?

Spiral bacteria are one of five different types of bacteria. They are also called spirillum bacteria and have a somewhat rigid spiral shape. Spiral bacteria are reported to be 1.4 to 1.7 micrometers in diameter and can be up to 60 micrometers long. Spirillum bacteria can be found in many habitats but is often found in stagnant water. Helicobacter pylori is found in the human stomach and may cause ulcers, while Campylobacter jejuni can cause diarrhea and is found in undercooked poultry as well as in locations where sanitation is poor.
