Through cellular respiration,
these organisms use
oxygen to
metabolise substances, like
sugars or fats, to
obtain energy. In this type of respiration...

Facultative anaerobes can grow with or
without oxygen because they can
metabolise energy aerobically or anaerobically. They
gather mostly at the top because...

plastivore is an
organism capable of
degrading and
metabolising plastic.
While plastic is
normally thought of as non-biodegradable, a
variety of bacteria...
- why
facultative anaerobes,
which can
metabolise energy both
aerobically and anaerobically,
preferentially metabolise energy aerobically. This is observable...
- In
aquatic arthropods, the end-product of
biochemical reactions that
metabolise nitrogen is ammonia,
which is so
toxic that it
needs to be
