aerobe, an organism able to live and reproduce only in the presence of free oxygen (e.g., certain bacteria and certain yeasts). Organisms that grow in the absence of free oxygen are termed anaerobes; those that grow only in the absence of oxygen are obligate, or strict, anaerobes.

An aerobic organism or aerobe is an organism that can survive and grow in an oxygenated environment. [1] . The ability to exhibit aerobic respiration may yield benefits to the aerobic organism, as aerobic respiration yields more energy than anaerobic respiration. [2] .

2022年6月12日 · Aerobic bacteria (or aerobes) are the bacteria that survive and grow only in the presence of oxygen in their environment. Aerobes grow and live in an ambient air environment, i.e., 21% oxygen and 0.03% carbon dioxide .

Certain microbes, known as aerobes, possess enzymes for oxygen metabolism such as peroxidase, catalase and superoxide dismutase. Contrastively, other anaerobes lack these radical-conversion enzymes, rendering them incapable of …

2022年6月16日 · To understand obligate aerobes, let us know the literal meaning of the word: Aerobes = survive in oxygen; Obligate = necessarily; Hence, their name literally means organisms that categorically require oxygen to grow and survive.

The meaning of AEROBE is an organism (such as a bacterium) that lives only in the presence of oxygen.

The aerobes are classified into four types based on their respiration process. They are namely, obligate aerobes, facultative anaerobes, microaerophiles, and aerotolerant anaerobes. The best example for aerobes is certain bacteria and yeasts.

2023年11月11日 · Aerobic bacteria, or aerobes, are organisms that require oxygen for growth and survival. Aerobes use oxygen as a terminal electron acceptor during cellular respiration to produce energy in the form of ATP. Aerobic respiration pathways like the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation allow aerobes to derive energy from the oxidation of nutrients.

Aerobes are bacteria requiring oxygen at their terminal electron acceptor. Anaerobes cannot survive in the presence of oxygen due to the lack of enzymes like superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase and they use other inorganic chemicals such as nitrate, nitrite, and sulfites as their terminal electron acceptor.

Aerobes. Aerobic microorganisms require the presence of oxygen for growth. Molecular oxygen functions in the respiratory pathway of the microbes to produce the energy necessary for life. Bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and algae are capable of aerobic growth. The opposite of an aerobe is …
