The kinds of microbial
Introduction:
The process by which air is passed through, mixed or dissolved in a solute or a substance is called aeration. The environment that has sufficient amount of air for respiration of microbes is called aerated environment. The conditions that lack oxygen are called anoxic. An example of an anoxic environment is the hydrothermal vents.
