nutrition and metabolism Flashcards
obligate aerobes
requires free oxygen for cellular respiration
microaerophiles
require small amounts of oxygen
obligate anaerobes
grow in the presence of oxygen, may be toxic
could be aerotolerant
psychrophiles (cryophiles)
cold mos
0-20 degrees
what makes food smell bad in you fridge
mesophiles
20-40 degrees
disease causing organisms
(crops, humans, and animals)
themrophiles
45-80 degrees
hot springs, compost piles, not associated with infections
halophiles
osmophiles, need high concentrations of salt to stablize membranes
what can handle hypo/hypertonic envoriments better or worse
1st animal/plant
2nd gram negative
3rd gram positive
review glycolysis
look on youtube
OIL RIG
oxygenation is losing electrons
reduction is gaining electrons
dehydrogenation
loss of hydrogen ions
