What bacteria can survive without the presence of oxygen?

Archaebacteria called extremeophiles have some species that live entirely anaerobically. Bacteria [and other organisms] that respire using O2 as the 'final' electron acceptor are termed to be Aerobic, while bacteria [and the odd organism] that has the biochemical capacity to Live without O2 are termed to be Anaerobic.

Does glycolysis happen with or without oxygen?

Many types of bacteria can live in Anaerobic conditions, I.e they don't need oxygen to live, as they create energy using anaerobic respiration.


Is the sponge Gelliodes fibrosa aerobic or anaerobic?

All sponges are aerobic, they need oxygen to live. Some do however, live in low oxygen environments and they can 'house' anaerobic bacteria.
