Talk:Aerobic organism
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I added the " - which is a factor of 19x more energy per sugar molecule than the typical anaerobic reaction." edit. Since I am not a chemist, I hope I did the correct calculation. This is such a dramatic difference, I thought it should be highlighted. FrankH 17:47, May 26, 2004 (UTC)
Cannot seem to figure out if there is a difference between facultative aerobes and facultative anaerobes, I think the mention on this page needs its own article or stub or else should be renamed anearobic and linked as such.Brallan 00:29, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
Aerobic respiration in bacteria
How is aerobic respiration in bacteria achieved since they don't have mitochondria? The respective link in wikipedia links to aerobic respiration requiring mitochondria. If the cellular membrane is to be used instead, is the proton gradient achieved the same way as in mitochondria?
