Document Summary

Without o 2 etc will cease to operate. In absence of oxygen, glycolysis couples with fermentation (or in some organisms anaerobic respiration) to produce at p. Uses an etc with a final electron acceptor other than o 2 (i. e nitrate (no3-), sulphate. Some prokaryotes live in l ow-oxygen environments and rely on anaerobic respiration to break down fuels. Enables glycolysis to continue to make atp by substrate-level phosphorylation in the absence of oxidative phosphorylation driven by the etc. Prokaryotic metabolism varies with respect to o 2 : Obligate aerobes require o 2 for cellular respiration. Obligate anaerobes are poisoned by o 2 and use fermentation or anaerobic respiration. Facultative anaerobes can survive with or without o 2. Yeast and many bacteria are facultative anaerobes, they can survive using either fermentation or cellular respiration. Diverse nutritional and metabolic adaptations have evolved in prokaryotes. Prokaryotes can be categorized by how they obtain energy and carbon.

I know that this alot of questions, but it's kinda a last ditch effort. these are the last 42 definitions i have left to answer out of 500 question for my final exam study guide. so whatever help i can get is fine. No explanations needed just what each definition is explaining and thanks in advance ladies and gentlemen.
