rod shape
Some species of Bacillus bacteria can be harmful, such as Bacillus anthracis, which causes anthrax in humans and animals. However, most Bacillus species are harmless and some are even beneficial, used in probiotics, as soil inoculants, and in the production of enzymes.
Bacillus subtillus will test positive when performing a VP and Citrate test. Also, bacillus cereus is much more motile. It isn't as dependable as the chemical tests, but the cereus colonies will appear wispy and more widespread on an agar plate than those of subtilis.
Some examples of rod-shaped bacteria include Escherichia coli (E. coli), Bacillus subtilis, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. These bacteria are characterized by their elongated, cylindrical shape, which can be seen under a microscope.
Proteus mirabilis bacteria are rod-shaped (bacillus) and have a single flagellum at one end that assists in movement. They are known for their swarming motility on agar surfaces.
Bacillus cereus typically forms large, flat, and irregular colonies with a rough texture and a translucent to opaque appearance. Bacillus megaterium produces larger colonies that are often circular, smooth, and can have a glossy surface. In contrast, Bacillus subtilis colonies are usually smaller, more spreading, and may appear rough or undulate, often exhibiting a characteristic matte texture. Overall, the differences in size, shape, and surface texture help distinguish these three Bacillus species in culture.
yes
No, chlamydia is coccoid in shape.
It is facultative anaerobic and it is a rod shape (bacillus)
It is a rod-shaped organism.
Bacillus subtilis is a rod-shaped bacterium, typically appearing as long and cylindrical with rounded ends.
Some species of Bacillus bacteria can be harmful, such as Bacillus anthracis, which causes anthrax in humans and animals. However, most Bacillus species are harmless and some are even beneficial, used in probiotics, as soil inoculants, and in the production of enzymes.
Bacilli / Bacillus.

it is a chain. meaning that they are linked together like a chain
They would be in the Bacillus genus but more testing would have to be done to determine species.
