Organism Anaerobic

According to scientific sources, anaerobic organisms are organisms that cannot exist and develop without oxygen. They obtain energy from chemical reactions that occur in the absence of free oxygen. Such reactions are called anaerobic and ensure the vital activity of anaerobic organisms.

Features of an anaerobic organism. Anaerobic bacteria have a number of characteristics. Let's list some of them. - They are heterotrophs, that is, they receive organic substances from other organisms for their nutrition. Examples are saprotrophic fungi, destructors that cause rotting of the remains of fish and animals. - Kind of anaerobic



Anaeric organism - what is it?

**An organism is an open self-regulating and self-healing system** - a macromolecule represented by a collection of cells and non-cellular life forms (viruses). **Elements.** A chemical element is a type of atom that makes up a substance. Matter is a material-energy system with a certain level of complexity; everything that exists in the Universe and within us. Etymology. The word **"anaerobe"** - anaerobe is an organism or body of an animal or plant that requires for its development an atmosphere deprived of oxygen. For humans, the meaning of the term “organism of anaerobic respiration” has been valid only since **1935,** when the formation of the compound oxyhemoglobin in erythrocytes was established. The previously existing terms “respiratory organisms” and “anaerobic organisms” (as well as “non-oxygenated”) obviously indicated only the absence of oxygen in the environment. They turned out to be unacceptable due to the lack of definitions of molecular oxygen and its role in life and acted as a homonymy, since the air mentioned at that time was close in composition to mountain volcanic gases, in which the oxygen content is always minimal, up to its complete absence. The structure of all organisms. Organelles are functional units-complexes that ensure cell activity. Functions of organelles. DNA is the genetic material of a cell capable of transmitting hereditary characteristics; a complex consisting of two helically twisted sequence strands: a nitrogenous base (adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine) and three types of nucleotides. The nucleolus is a non-membrane cellular structure surrounded by granular ER and includes a “twisted” fragment of one of the two complementary strands of DNA formed by the mother and daughter cells. Chromatin structure - see histones. Histones are proteins, structural components of chromatin protein nucleoproteins that perform a supporting function during the formation of chromosomes. Nucleoli (5-40 pieces per cell) are ribonucleoprotein structures (like microtubules, but from 30 to 150 nm in diameter and 0.2-1 μm in length), found in specific nematode sites of the nucleus and sometimes cause destruction or abnormal structure of the eukaryotic cell by blockages of ducts or channels lead to deformations of the entire cellular body. Protozoan cells are organisms consisting of one or more (unicellular and multicellular forms) interconnected and functioning parts - organelle systems
