  2. Anaerobic organism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_organism

    Facultative anaerobes can grow with or without oxygen because they can metabolize energy aerobically or anaerobically. They gather mostly at the top because aerobic respiration generates more adenosine triphosphate (ATP) than either fermentation or anaerobic respiration. Microaerophiles need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire ...

  3. Microaerophile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microaerophile

    4: Microaerophiles need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. However, they are poisoned by high concentrations of oxygen. They gather in the upper part of the test tube but not the very top. 5: Aerotolerant organisms do not require oxygen as they metabolise energy anaerobically. Unlike obligate anaerobes however, they ...

  4. Obligate anaerobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obligate_anaerobe

    3: Facultative anaerobes can grow with or without oxygen because they can metabolise energy aerobically or anaerobically. They gather mostly at the top because aerobic respiration generates more ATP than either fermentation or anaerobic respiration. 4: Microaerophiles need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. However ...

  6. Facultative anaerobic organism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facultative_anaerobic_organism

    They gather at the top of the tube where the oxygen concentration is highest. 2: Obligate anaerobes are poisoned by oxygen, so they gather at the bottom of the tube where the oxygen concentration is lowest. 3: Facultative anaerobes can grow with or without oxygen because they can metabolise energy aerobically or anaerobically. They gather ...

  7. Purple sulfur bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_sulfur_bacteria

    [5] [6] Unlike plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, purple sulfur bacteria do not use water as their reducing agent, and therefore do not produce oxygen. Instead, they can use sulfur in the form of sulfide, or thiosulfate (as well, some species can use H 2 , Fe 2+ , or NO 2 − ) as the electron donor in their photosynthetic pathways. [ 5 ]

  8. Anaerobic respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaerobic_respiration

    Anaerobic cellular respiration and fermentation generate ATP in very different ways, and the terms should not be treated as synonyms. Cellular respiration (both aerobic and anaerobic) uses highly reduced chemical compounds such as NADH and FADH 2 (for example produced during glycolysis and the citric acid cycle) to establish an electrochemical gradient (often a proton gradient) across a membrane.
