What refers to the production of energy by a cell without using oxygen?

Fermentation


What is a term for a prokaryote that can only get energy without oxygen?

A prokaryote that can only obtain energy without oxygen is termed an obligate anaerobe. These microorganisms are unable to use oxygen for energy production and typically thrive in environments devoid of oxygen.


Which of these is required for the body's production of energy?

oxygen


How do tissues get the oxygen they need for energy production?

The tissues get oxygen from oxygenated blood supply for energy production.


What is the process called that you get energy without oxygen?

The process is called anaerobic respiration or fermentation, where energy is produced from glucose without the presence of oxygen. It is less efficient than aerobic respiration but is utilized by some organisms to generate energy in the absence of oxygen.


Is oxygen needed to release energy from food?

Yes, oxygen is needed to release energy from food in a process called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP, which is the energy currency of cells. Without oxygen, the process of cellular respiration cannot proceed efficiently, leading to a decrease in energy production.


What is it called when you obtain energy without the presence of oxygen?

anaerobic respiration


When a escherichia coli can produce energy without oxygen what is that called?

Anaerobic


How is Oxygen used in respiration?

Oxygen is used in respiration to accept electrons during the electron transport chain, which produces ATP energy. Without oxygen, the process of respiration cannot be completed efficiently, leading to decreased ATP production and energy for the cell.


Which one of the following processes can occur in the absence of oxygen?

Fermentation can occur in the absence of oxygen. This process allows for the production of energy in the form of ATP without the need for oxygen.


The process where energy is released from glucose without using oxygen is called what?

Without using oxygen the process is called an anaerobic process. The amount of energy is much less (2ATP) compared to aerobic (36 ATP).


What what is the breakdown of sugar without using oxygen?

In the absence of oxygen, sugar can be broken down through a process called fermentation. During fermentation, sugar is converted into energy, alcohol, and carbon dioxide. This process is commonly used in baking (yeast fermentation) and in the production of alcoholic beverages.
