(a) a cylindrical shaped bacteria exhibiting a variety of rod shapes
(b) a bend, or 'coma shapped' rod
(c) long, curved, flexible rod
(d) long, curved rod
(e) a small, cylindrical shaped bacteria with a cocci appearance

(A) a cylindrical shaped bacteria exhibiting a variety of rod shapes.- pleomorphic.

B) A bend, or 'coma shapped' rod - Vibrio.  

C) Long, curved, flexible rod - spirochete.

D) Long, curved rod - Spirillum.

E) A small, cylindrical shaped bacteria with a cocci appearance - coccobacillus.

F) Cylindrical shape - Rods.

G) Round shape - Coccus.

Explanation:

A). A pleomorphic bacteria is the one which is capable of changing it's shape, mode of nutrition and reproduction.

B). Vibrio is the genus of gram-negative bacteria. It posses a curved comma shape. This is responsible for foodborne infections.

C). Spirochete is a helical, rod shaped bacteria. It posses flexible cell wall and a mechanism that helps in motility.

D). Sprillium is a gram-negative bacteria. It has a rigid spiral structure. It has a long curved rod. It is found in the stagnant water and can also be responsible for causing water borne diseases.

E). Coccobacillus is a bacteria which has shape which is in between cocci and rod. These are very short rods which are mistakenly consider as cocci.

F). A bacillus or bacilliform bacteria is a rod shaped bacteria which can be found in different taxonomic groups of bacteria. These have cylindrical shape.

G) A coccus is the shape of the bacteria which can be consider as either spherical, ovoid or round in shape.
