Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cocci are rod-shaped bacteria with or without flagella.
Detailed explanation-2: -(a) Atrichous – Flagella absent, e.g., Lactobacillus, Pasteurella.
Detailed explanation-3: -Both bacteria and archaea use flagella for swimming motility, but it has been well documented that structures of the flagellum from these two domains of life are completely different, although they contribute to a similar function.
Detailed explanation-4: -Based on their arrangement, bacteria are classified into four groups: monotrichous (having one flagellum), amphitrichous (single flagellum at both ends), lophotrichous (numerous flagella as a tuft), and peritrichous (flagella distributed all over the cell except at the poles).
