Bacterial Shape & Configuration A fun Review!! There are 3 major shapes for bacteria. These appear in the picture to the left. How would you describe them? Circles, Squares, and Squiggles Rods, Eggs, and Lines Circles, Rods, and Spirals Cubes, Spirals, and Bars TRY AGAIN … There are 3 major shapes for bacteria. These appear in the picture to the left. How would you describe them? Circles, Squares, and Squiggles Rods, Eggs, and Lines Circles, Rods, and Spirals Cubes, Spirals, and Bars Click on the speaker picture to have this slide read aloud. Here are the three shapes with their scientific names. Circles are called “Coccus” (pronounced KOK-us) Rods are called “Bacillus” (pronounced buh-SILL-us) Spirals are called “Spirillum” (pronounced spy-RILL-um) READ THIS AGAIN … CAREFULLY. Here are the three shapes with their scientific names. Circles are called “Coccus” (pronounced KOK-us) Rods are called “Bacillus” (pronounced buh-SILL-us) Spirals are called “Spirillum” (pronounced spy-RILL-um) What are circles called? Coccus Spirillum Bacillus What are rods called? Coccus Spirillum Bacillus What are spirals called? Coccus Spirillum Bacillus Click on the speaker picture to have this slide read aloud. These 3 shapes are found in 2 main configurations. Clumps are called “Staphylo” (pronounced STAH-fill-oh) Chains are called “Strepto” (pronounced STREP-toh) Clumps are called … Staphylo Strepto TRY AGAIN Clumps are called … Staphylo Strepto Chains are called … Staphylo Strepto TRY AGAIN Chains are called … Staphylo Strepto Press the speaker button to have this slide read aloud. Now let’s put it all together .. Clumps of Circles are called Staphylococcus Clumps of Rods are called Staphylobacillus Clumps of Spirals are called Staphylospirillum Chains of Circles are called Streptococcus Chains of Rods are called Streptobacillus Chains of Spirals are called Streptospirillum AND I’M READY TO MOVE ON I NEED TO REVIEW MORE Staphylococcus Streptococcus Staphylobacillus Streptobacillus Staphylobacillus Streptococcus Staphylococcus Streptobacillus Staphylospirillum Streptobacillus Staphylococcus Streptospirillum Staphylospirillum Streptococcus Staphylobacillus Streptospirillum Staphylococcus Staphylobacillus Streptococcus Streptobacillus Staphylobacillus Streptospirillum Streptococcus Staphylospirillum Staphylococcus Streptococcus Staphylobacillus Streptobacillus Streptococcus Staphylococcus Staphylobacillus Streptobacillus Streptococcus Staphylococcus Staphylospirillum Streptobacillus Well played, maestro!! Click the speaker: YEAH, BOYYYYYY!! I’LL ACE THAT QUIZ! I NEED MORE PRACTICE
