cocci
Protozoa are not bacteria. They are single-celled eukaryotic organisms that can have various shapes, including spherical, rod-shaped, and more complex forms. Bacteria, on the other hand, are typically rod-shaped, spherical, or spiral in shape.
If it's a string of circular bacteria it's a chain of cocci (spherical) bacteria.
No, spherical is not a virus. Spherical refers to a three-dimensional shape like a sphere, while a virus is a microscopic infectious agent that can replicate within living cells.
Staphylococci, Streptococci, tetrads, Diplococci
Yes, cocci bacteria are spherical-shaped and classified as round bacteria. While they do not possess flagella for self-movement, some species can exhibit movement through other means, such as twitching or gliding. However, they primarily rely on external factors, like fluid currents, for mobility.
Round bacteria are cocci.
Confusion
Streptococcus, the bacteria that causes strep throat, is spherical (cocci) in shape.

Bacteria can have various shapes, including spherical (cocci), rod-shaped (bacilli), spiral, and filamentous. Some bacteria can also exhibit atypical shapes such as star-shaped (stellate), comma-shaped (vibrio), and corkscrew-shaped (spirochete).
sometimes clumps Cocci bacteria is spherical, but yes sometimes it is in clumps.
3 shapes of bacteria are spirilla (spiral), bacilla (rod-shaped), and cocci (spherical).
Spherical, rod-like and spiral
The three basic shapes of bacteria are cocci (spherical), bacilli (rod-shaped), and spirilla (spiral-shaped). Each shape has a unique structure that contributes to the bacteria's function and ability to survive.
