Term: anaerobic
Origin: Anc Greek ? or ??- (before of a vowel)/an-(=privative) +???/aer(=air) +????/vios(=life)
Coined: In 1863 by French scientist Louis Pasteur .
Definition :
Any microorganism that can't live and grow in the presence of free oxygen. At the same time of period the term in human physiology, the terms aerobic and anaerobic were used in relation to how the body obtained energy.
- #95 Rice Adaptation For Growing With Its Roots Submerged In Water
There are many varieties of rice and they differ in their water requirements. Most of the rice in south-east Asia is grown in unusual conditions for a cereal plant. It is grown partly submerged in water in paddy fields. The fields are flooded and then...
- #92 Atp Yield In Aerobic And Anaerobic Respiration
Only small amounts of ATP are produced when one glucose molecule undergoes anaerobic respiration. This is because only glycolysis is completed. The Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation, which produce most ATP do not take place. The precise number...
- #87 Respiration, Glycolysis
Respiration is the oxidation of energy-containing organic molecules. The energy released from this process is used to combine ADP with inorganic phosphate to make ATP. All cells obtain useable energy through respiration. Most cells use carbohydrate,...
