Some bacteria are are-obs so they can survive even in the absence of oxygen. Instead they get energy from other chemical substances.

Which structures break down food and release energy?
Mitochondria break down food and release energy.
What breaks down foos and releases energy?
Bacteria helps you break down food along with your stomach acid. the process of respiration allows you to release energy. Resperation is the process in which food is broken down and energy is released.
Autotrophic bacteria use the sun's energy to break down these in their environment?
Simple inorganic substances, such as water and carbon dioxide.
What do mitochondria break down to produce energy?
In aerobic respiration, mitochondria break down oxygen and glucose to make energy, and also make carbon dioxide and water. In anaerobic respiration, they only use Glucose to make energy and also make lactic acid.
. How do aerobic bacteria differ from anaerobic bacteria?
aerobic bacteria use oxygen based respiration, anaerobic bacteria use either nonoxygen based respiration (e.g. nitrogen, sulfur) or fermentation.
Do all bacteria must use oxygen to break down food and energy?
Some bacteria need oxygen to survive, while others would find it poisonous. Bacteria that need oxygen to survive are commonly referred to as aerobic bacteria while bacteria that does not require oxygen are anaerobic. There are also bacteria that are classified as facultative anaerobes, this type of bacteria do not require oxygen to survive but prefer to have it.
Do humans break down sugars into energy or oxygen?
they break sugar down using enzymes which are proteins, into energy, oxygen is used as an energy supplier to the reaction which creates water and Co2
Which structures break down food and release energy?
Mitochondria break down food and release energy.
What type bacteria break down inorganic compounds for energy?
Chemosynthetic
Does oxygen carry energy to cells or does it only burn food?
Oxygen is used to break down energy which is then used in cells.
What plants need to break down and release energy to move its food to other plants?
the plant needs oxygen to break down and release energy to move its food
How do bacteria help break down the waste in water treatmentment plants?
The bacteria feed on the waste and use the oxygen. (Straight from a Science Book.)
What plant needs to break down and release energy to move it's food to other parts?
the plant needs oxygen to break down and release energy to move its food
What do Cells use to break down glucose and store its energy in molecules of ATP?
oxygen :)
Is oxygen consumed when aerobic bacteria break down dead algae in a pond?
Yes, oxygen is consumed by the aerobic bacteria in degrading the dead algae. Oxygen is used by bacteria in aerobic respiration. Lots of energy needed for degradation of organic matter in to inorganic comes from cellular respiration of bacterial cells.
What breaks down foos and releases energy?
Bacteria helps you break down food along with your stomach acid. the process of respiration allows you to release energy. Resperation is the process in which food is broken down and energy is released.
What is oxygen used to break down food molecules releasing large amounts of energy?
Cellular Respiration
