The simplest shape is a round sphere or ball. Bacteria formed like this are called cocci (singular coccus). The next simplest shape is cylindrical. Cylindrical bacteria are called rods (singular rod). Some bacteria are basically rods but instead of being straight they are twisted or bent or curved, sometimes in a spiral - these bacteria are called spirilla (singular spirillum). Spirochaetes are tightly coiled up 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).
Bacteria can be classified according to what three things?
Bacteria can be classified based on their shape (cocci, bacilli, spirilla), Gram stain reaction (Gram-positive or Gram-negative), and metabolism (aerobic or anaerobic).
What are the 3 types of bacteria according to shape?
The three shapes of bacteria are: coccus (spherical) bacillus (rod like) spiral - based on the configuration of cell wall. There are 2 types of spiral cells; they are spirochetes and spirilla.

Three basic shapes of bacteria?
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.

An oval is two-dimensional. An ovoid is a three-dimensional shape based on an oval - like an egg,
What level of classification was developed because of prokaryote diversity?
The domain level of classification was developed because of prokaryote diversity. This level was created to classify organisms into three primary categories: Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya, based on molecular and genetic differences.
