Organisms which need oxygen are called aerobic organisms or aerobes. The oxygen is used in the process of respiration to release energy from food. Organisms which do not use oxygen in respiration are called anaerobic organisms or anaerobes. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobic_organism

What distinguishes aerobic from anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration requires diatomic free oxygen. Anaerobic respiration does not require it, and in fact is often hindered by free oxygen.
What metabolism requires the use of oxygen?
Aerobic metabolism requires oxygen to function.
What do you call an organism requiring oxygen?
aerobic
Why does the organism need oxygen and nutrients?
dick
What does it mean for an organism to be organized?
It is poisoned by oxygen
In which organism is aerobic respiration found?
An organism that uses aerobic respiration is one that requires oxygen for growth. The scientific name for this type of organism is obligate aerobes, but you may know them as plants, animals, and humans.
What organism requires a constant supply of oxygen in order to live are called what?
obligate aerobes.
Name the organisms that absorb oxygen by diffusion?
name the organism which absorbs oxygen by diffusion
What distinguishes aerobic from anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration requires diatomic free oxygen. Anaerobic respiration does not require it, and in fact is often hindered by free oxygen.
Why does the body need oxygen exact answer?
Well as you might know: Organism > organ systems > organs > tissue > cells > (atoms and molecules and such) For the cell to function it requires oxygen. If the cell doesn't function the tissue fails. Then the organs, organs systems and then the organism dies.
What is the primary use of deep?
Agar deeps are used to see whether an organism requires oxygen to grow. If there is spreading growth only at the bottom of the tube, the organism is an obligate anaerobe (meaning it cannot tolerate oxygen). If there is growth only at the surface of the agar, the organism is an obligate aerobe (it cannot grow without oxygen). And if there is growth all along the point of innoculation, the organism is a facultative anaerobe and can survive either way.
What is the name of an organism such as yeast which depends on the presence of free oxygen to survive?
I think the answer is AEROBE
What is the name given for an activity that requires an extended amount of oxygen?
Aerobic Exercise
What organism requires a second organism of the opposite sex in order to reproduce?
The penis requires a vagina in order to reproduce.
A certain plant requires moisture oxygen carbon dioxide light and minerals in order to survive This statement describes a living organism that depends on?
abiotic factors!!
Why is respiration rate closely linked to enzyme activity in the cells of an organism?
Cellular respiration is a process that requires oxygen. So when you breathe you take in oxygen to that your mitochondria can use it to create ATP.
What metabolism requires the use of oxygen?
Aerobic metabolism requires oxygen to function.
