is anaerobic respiration the same as fermentation?
No, it’s not
why?
Anerobic respiration uses pmf to make ATP but not fermentation
Aerobe?
require oxygen for growth
Anaerobe?
oxygen is not required for growth
Facultative aerobe?
oxygen is not required but
enhances growth rate
when the source of energy is from chemicals?
Chemotroph
When the source of energy is from light?
phototroph
when the source of electron is from organic compounds?
Organotroph
when the source of electron is from inorganic compounds?
Lithotroph
when the source of carbon is organic compound(glucose)?
Heterotroph
When the source of carbon is inorganic compounds(CO2) ?
Autotroph
In anerobic conditions?
fermentatino or anerobic respiration
Anerobic respiration is ?
use of other terminal electron acceptors than O2
do they have a respiratory chain?
yes,but it’s modified
it has?
specific cytochromes and proteins to allow the use of specific
terminal electron acceptors.
