Choose all of the possible classifications for oxygen requirement of these bacteria (choose more than ONE option if applicable): A. Obligate aerobes B. Facultative anaerobes C. Obligate anaerobes D. Aerotolerant anaerobes E. Microaerophiles
Microbial Physiology
Microbial physiology is the branch of microbiology that is associated with studying the physiology of fungi, bacteria, and viruses. It is an important field of science concerning functional genomics and metabolic engineering.
Chemotaxis
The organism’s movement in a particular direction as a response to certain chemicals that are available in the environment is defined as chemotaxis. In brief, it can be defined as the occurrence of an organism’s movement in response to a certain chemical stimulus.
