An aerobe is a organism (bacteria generally) that needs oxygen in its environment to conduct its metabolic processes.
An anaerobe is a bacteria that exists in non-oxygenated environments using other reactants to conduct its metabolic processes
Aerobes and anaerobes cannot live in each others environment.
However (there's always a however), facultative organisms like yeast can live in either circumstance - yeast produces CO2 in aerobic environments and alcohol in anaerobic environments

What causes pellicle formation on a broth?
It is caused by the bacteria dying, because it ran out of oxygen. The bacteria that formed a pellicle would be considered a oligate aerobe or strict aerobe, because it can only survive in the presence of oxygen.
How do you put aerobe in a sentence?
Obligate aerobes must always have access to oxygen to survive.
What is the name given to organisms that require oxygen to survive?
obligate aerobes.
The advantages and disadvantages of a broth tube culture compared to a culture on a Petri plate?
If you grow your bacteria in a broth tube you can view the oxygen requirements of the bacteria (close to the bottom, anaerobe: close to the top, aerobe)
