Bacillus is a rod shaped bacteria. A cocci is spherical. A vibrio, like vibrio colera, is shaped just like a tiny comma , A spirocete is shaped like a tiny corkscrew like the bacteria. A staphylococci is like a cluster of grapes. A diplococci is two spheres that are attached. I hope that helps.

Hope this helps if you need more email me.
