obligate aerobes require oxygen by using cellular respiration or fermentation in order to survive. obligate anaerobes do not require it and will die if they are exposed to oxygen.

What is the difference between obligate aerobes obligate anaerobes?

aerobes are those which require free molecular oxygen about 21% in air while facultative anaerobes can survive in both conditions presence and absence of oxygen


What two enzymes are present in obligate aerobes but lacking in obligate anaerobes?

Catalase and superoxide dismutase are two enzymes that are present in obligate aerobes but lacking in obligate anaerobes. These enzymes help in breaking down toxic reactive oxygen species that are produced during aerobic respiration.


Do bacteria need oxygene?

It depends on the bacteria. Cyanobacteria are a good example of a bacteria that can. There are obligate anaerobes, obligate aerobes, and organisms that can live with or without it.


Bacillus?

Obligate aerobes + facultative anaerobes 2) Gram + rods 3) Bacillus anthracis - anthrax


Bacteria that only grows with the absence of oxygen?

Anaerobic bacteria are microorganisms that thrive in environments without oxygen. These bacteria obtain energy through fermentation or anaerobic respiration. They play important roles in processes like decomposition and digestion.


In what ways do facultative anaerobic bacteria differ from the other two types of bacteria in terms of their oxygen requirements?

Facultative anaerobic bacteria can survive with or without oxygen, while obligate aerobes require oxygen to survive and obligate anaerobes cannot survive in the presence of oxygen.


What is a scientific name for obligate aerobes?

Aerobes that require oxygen to survive are known as obligate aerobes.


What are bacteria that cannot live without oxygen called?

Bacteria that must have oxygen to survive are called obligate aerobes. Some bacteria can live with or without oxygen and are called facultative anaerobes.Anaerobes = No oxygenAerobes = Oxygen


What is the name given to organisms that require oxygen to survive?

Aerobes are organisms that require oxygen to survive. They use oxygen for their metabolic processes to generate energy for growth and survival. Without oxygen, these organisms cannot carry out their normal functions.


How do aerobes and anaerobes clean up wastewater?

they eat it


What type of bacteria can live in the presence of oxygen?

only obligate aerobes and facultive anaerobes.


How do facultative anaerobic bacteria differ from the other two types of bacteria in terms of their ability to thrive in both aerobic and anaerobic environments?

Facultative anaerobic bacteria can survive and grow in both oxygen-rich (aerobic) and oxygen-poor (anaerobic) environments, while obligate aerobes require oxygen to survive and obligate anaerobes cannot survive in the presence of oxygen.
