Add individual bacterial images based --- ## 3.2 Morphology and classification of bacteria ...also paying an important role in identifying the bacteria. Staining techniques is... Bacteria are classified into 7 groups depending on their shape: 1. Cocci - (Kokhos means berry) - These are spherical in shape 2. Bacilli - (Baculus means rod) - These are rod shaped cells 3. Vibrios - These are comma shaped, curved rods possessing vibratory motility --- ## Paper -II Microbiology and Pathology (Page 149) 4. Spirilla - These are rigid spiral forms 5. Spirochaetes (Coiled hairs) - These are thin flexuous spiral forms 6. Actinomycetes - These are branching filamentous bacteria. When seen in tissues they appear like radiating rays of the sun (sunray appearance). This is due to the rigid cell wall. 7. Mycoplasma - These are bacteria with defective cell wall. This may be due to spontaneous mutation or due to penicillin administration. Such cells are called as protoplasts, spheroplasts or L forms. ### Arrangement of Bacterial cells 1. Cocci in pairs - Diplococci 2. Cocci in chains - Streptococci 3. Cocci in clusters - Staphylococci 4. Cocci in groups of four - Tetrads 5. Cocci in pockets of eight - Sarcina 6. Bacilli in chains - Streptobacilli 7. Bacilli in chinese letter pattern - Coryne bacteria --- ## Paper -II Microbiology and Pathology (Page 151) ### Difference between Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria | Gram positive bacteria | Gram negative bacteria | |---|---| | Simple cell wall | More complex cell wall | | Thick peptidoglycan cell wall layer | Thin peptidoglycan cell wall layer | | No outer lipopolysaccharide wall layer | Outer lipopolysaccharide wall layer | | Retain crystal violet/iodine | Retain safranin | | Appear (Blue/Purple) | Appear (Pink/Red) | ### Ribosomes These are the centers of protein synthesis.

Spirilla vs Spirochaetes: Spirilla are rigid spirals (like a corkscrew spring), while spirochaetes are flexible and undulating. Both are visible in the curved shapes column of the overview diagram.
