Three major types of bacterial shapes:
1. Cocci- are round cells, occasionally a little flattened when they are near each other.
2. Bacilli- are rod-shaped bacteria.
3. Spirilla- are curved bacteria that can range from a mildly curved shape to a corkscrew-like curve.
Coccus or cocci was observed in the experiment.
Answer:
The three forms of bacteria are bacilli, coccus, and spirals.
Explanation:
Bacilli are characterized by being rod-shaped bacteria. The most common are those that cause tuberculosis, tetanus, etc. These types of bacteria inhabit different environments and can only be seen using a microscope. While coccus are bacteria with a spherical shape. And finally, the spirals are bar-shaped, spiral, or rigid.
