What are aerobic prokaryotes?

They are bacteria and archaea that can use oxygen in their metabolism as a final electron aceptor in electron transport chains (just like we do) in a respiration process. read more

From all the typical biomolecules you can find in metabolism, this pair is the one that produces the biggest amount of energy due to having the biggest difference in their reduction potential. But in prokaryotes other pairs are possible. Prokaryotes are aerobic if they use oxygen as one of the pair. read more

Aerobic cellular respiration uses oxygen to make ATP, a form of energy the cell can easily spend to do work. Many prokaryotes, small simple cells like bacteria, can perform aerobic cellular respiration. These cells will move electrons back and forth across their cell membrane. read more

It can be aerobic respiration in the presence of oxygen or anaerobic respiration. Prokaryotic cells carry out cellular respiration within the cytoplasm or on the inner surfaces of the cells. More emphasis here will be placed on eukaryotic cells where the mitochondria are the site of most of the reactions. read more
