Staphylococcus aureus is a bacteria, not a fungus.
Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium which is shaped like a bunch of grapes.
Staphylococcus aureus is facultative anaerobe, meaning it can grow in both the presence and absence of oxygen. It can tolerate oxygen but thrives better in environments with low to moderate oxygen levels.
"Aureus" is not a classification level; it is a species name within the Staphylococcus genus. The classification levels for organisms are Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species. Staphylococcus aureus belongs to the domain Bacteria, the phylum Firmicutes, the class Bacilli, the order Bacillales, the family Staphylococcaceae, the genus Staphylococcus, and the species aureus.

Yes, Staphylococcus aureus can grow on Nutrient Agar, which is a general-purpose medium that supports the growth of a wide variety of bacteria, including Staphylococcus species. Staphylococcus aureus typically forms white to creamy colonies on Nutrient Agar.
It depends. Some bacteria, like Staphylococcus aureus, have become resistant to penicillin G. Not all species of Staphylococcus are resistant. Even some strains of Staphylococcus aureus are still susceptible to penicillin G.

Bacteria domain
MRSA is a bacterium, (methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus), not a virus. It does grow, but not like a virus.
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) is a bacterium responsible for difficult-to-treat infections in humans. It may also be referred to as multiple-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or oxacillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(ORSA). MRSA are by definition strains of Staphylococcus aureus that are resistant to a large group of antibiotics called the beta-lactams, which include the penicillins and the cephalosporins.
