A Close Up of a Bacteria

Did you ever wonder what Bacteria even looks like? Or if bacteria all had one similar shape? Well, look no further! I just happen to have a picture of a Bacteria (taken by me) right here for you!



It is not what you expected right? Well this is a type of bacteria in the shape of a Coccus (Circular shape). There are many different shapes and sizes in the world but sadly I only happen to have this specific type.

Shape: Coccus (Circuar shape)

Other Shapes: 

  • Bacilli: Rod-Shaped Bacteria
  • Spirilli: Bacteria with curved walls
