Which is a spiral shape bacteria?
Correct answer: A. Spirochete
- A. Spirochete
- B. E. coli
- C. Pseudomonas
- D. Streptococcus
Explanation
The correct answer is Spirochete because they are spiral-shaped bacteria. The spiral shape allows them to move in unique ways compared to other bacterial shapes. E. coli and Pseudomonas are both rod-shaped bacteria, while Streptococcus is spherical, forming chains, thus none of these match the spiral shape described in the question.
