Definition of aerobic : ...
The paradox of aerobic life, or the `Oxygen Paradox', is that higher eukaryotic aerobic organisms cannot exist without oxygen, yet oxygen is inherently dangerous to their existence.
aerobic -- Pertaining to the presence of free oxygen. Aerobic organisms require oxygen for their life processes.
Aerobic respiration
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen in order to generate energy (ATP). It is the preferred method of pyruvate breakdown from glycolysis and requires that pyruvate enter the mitochondrion to be fully oxidized by the Krebs cycle.
Aerobic
The presence of oxygen. Often used to describe an organism that requires oxygen for growth or growth conditions with oxygen.
aerobic
(air-oh-bik) [Gk. aer, air + bios, life]
Containing oxygen; referring to an organism, environment, or cellular process that requires oxygen.
afferent ...
Aerobic Gram-Positive Rods
Bacillus anthracis/cereus/thuringiensis. These organisms differ mainly in the plasmids they contain.
Aerobic In the presence of oxygen.
Affinity chromatography A protein-purification technique based on the high affinity of many proteins for specific chemical groups.
Anaerobic: An environment in which the partial pressure of oxygen is significantly below normal atmospheric levels; deoxygenated (Lincolnet al., 1998).
anaerobic Refers to organisms that are not dependent on oxygen for respiration.
aerobic Having molecular oxygen present; an oxygen-dependent form of respiration.
aerobic respiration Respiration in the presence of oxygen.
aerobic Oxygen-dependent form of respiration.
Aerobic cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria.
Prokaryotes do not have mitochondria.

An anaerobic step that yeast use after glycolysis that breaks down pyruvic acid to ethanol and carbon dioxide.

Under anaerobic conditions, the absence of oxygen, pyruvic acid can be routed by the organism into one of three pathways: lactic acid fermentation, alcohol fermentation, or cellular (anaerobic) respiration.
Fermentation anaerobic conversion of glucose to some waste product‚ including glycolysis plus steps to regenerate NAD+

Finally, a partial microarray containing about 200 genes involved in energy metabolism and regulation were constructed and used to monitor gene expression patterns under anaerobic conditions.
Therefore, we could say that O2 is a waste product for a photosynthetic organism except for the fact that they as all other aerobic organisms (like us) also use the O2 in the production of their ATP. Simply stated, we need oxygen to "burn" our fuel.
Many bacteria are anaerobic and die almost immediately in the presence of oxygen.
Floating bacteria are generally the same, they are either growing aerobically, fast growing or slow growing but they are pretty much the same. Where as in a biofilm, there are some that see oxygen, there are some that see absolutely no oxygen at all.
This process is called aerobic respiration and is the reason animals breathe oxygen.
in conditions of sudden anaerobic energy need, when muscle proteins are broken down for energy, alanine acts as a carrier molecule to take the nitrogen-containing amino group to the liver to be changed to the less toxic urea, ...
Fecal coliform bacteria Technically, all the facultative anaerobic gram negative non-spore forming rod shaped bacteria that fermet lactose in EC medium with gas production within 24h at 44.5 degrees C.
citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle or tricarboxylic acid cycle) - central metabolic pathway found in all aerobic organisms. Oxidizes acetyl groups derived from food molecules to CO2 amd H2O. Occurs in the mitochondria of eucaryotic cells.
It's called anaerobic fermentation. And voila, alcohol. Even though they are single celled, you may find them in colonies. They reproduce very quickly and hang out together.
glycolysis
The splitting of glucose into pyruvate. Glycolysis is the one metabolic pathway that occurs in all living cells, serving as the starting point for fermentation or aerobic respiration.
