What is the process called by which organisms are responsible for producing nitrogen compounds?
Nitrogen fixation. It can only be performed by a very small number of species of anaerobic bacteria.
Where is the most anaerobic zone in the ocean?
The most anaerobic zone in the ocean is found in the waters near the seafloor in regions known as oxygen minimum zones (OMZs). These areas have very low levels of dissolved oxygen, making them suitable habitats for anaerobic organisms. OMZs are often located in deep ocean basins or along coastlines where oxygen supply is limited.
Organisms that are poisoned by oxygen and must live in very low oxygen regions are called?
Obligate anaerobes are poisoned by O2 and use fermentation or anaerobic respiration
Why did anaerobic respiration developed first?
Anaerobic respiration likely evolved first because ancient prokaryotic organisms lived in environments with low oxygen levels. These organisms needed a way to generate energy without oxygen, leading to the development of anaerobic respiration pathways. It was a simpler and more ancient metabolic process compared to aerobic respiration.
What does microbiology means?
Biology of organisms to small for the human eye to see. This can be anywhere from a single cell, to an organism with a very small number of them.
Most small disease causing organisms are very small or large?
small

Very small organisms in the ocean?
bacteria
What is a species if its organisms are found in very small numbers?
If a species is endangered, the organism will be found in very small numbers.
Are micro organisms living things?
'organisms' because they are living things, 'mirco-' means very small.
How can living organisms and most materials on earth be composed of just a few elements?
living things need other elements but very small amounts

Do organisms have to produce oxygen to be considered a living thing?
I think you are meaning if organisms don't need oxygen are they still living things? The answer would be yes they are. There are plenty of anaerobic bacteria around. Anaerobic meaning that it lacks oxygen. Bacteria are single cell organisms that are very much alive, but there was also a recent discovery in 2010 where they discovered a multicellular organism that doesn't require oxygen as well it's a species of Spinoloricus.
Are amoebas large or small organisms?
They are microorganisms, consisting of only one cell, and they are so small that they cannot be seen with the unaided eye. Some organisms are smaller than amoebas, but they are still very small.
