Archaebacteria called extremeophiles have some species that live entirely anaerobically.
Bacteria [and other organisms] that respire using O2 as the 'final' electron acceptor are termed to be Aerobic, while bacteria [and the odd organism] that has the biochemical capacity to Live without O2 are termed to be Anaerobic.
Anaerobic bacteria are able to survive and grow in environments without oxygen. These bacteria use alternative electron acceptors, such as nitrate or sulfate, for energy production in the absence of oxygen. Examples of anaerobic bacteria include Clostridium species and Methanogens.
An example of an organism that can survive with or without oxygen is a facultative anaerobe like the bacterium E. coli. Facultative anaerobes can switch between aerobic respiration in the presence of oxygen and fermentation in the absence of oxygen to generate energy. This flexibility allows them to adapt to varying environmental conditions.
Bacteria that must have oxygen to survive are called obligate aerobes. Some bacteria can live with or without oxygen and are called facultative anaerobes.Anaerobes = No oxygenAerobes = Oxygen
Aerobic bacteria require oxygen to grow and survive, while anaerobic bacteria do not require oxygen and can survive in environments without it. Aerobic bacteria can use oxygen as a final electron acceptor in their metabolic processes, whereas anaerobic bacteria use alternative molecules like nitrate or sulfate.
Anaerobic bacteria can survive and reproduce without oxygen by obtaining energy from other sources such as fermentation. Some organisms like certain deep-sea creatures and certain bacteria can adapt to living in oxygen-deprived environments by using alternative metabolic processes. However, the majority of complex organisms, including animals and plants, require oxygen for survival.
Anaerobic bacteria or facultative anaerobic bacteria.
Anaerobic bacteria are able to survive and grow in environments without oxygen. These bacteria use alternative electron acceptors, such as nitrate or sulfate, for energy production in the absence of oxygen. Examples of anaerobic bacteria include Clostridium species and Methanogens.
The term that best defines a bacteria that can survive without oxygen is "anaerobic." Anaerobic bacteria do not require oxygen for growth and metabolism.
Faculatitive Anaerobe
Yes, the presence of oxygen is important for many living organisms as it is necessary for the process of cellular respiration, which produces energy for the body. However, some organisms, like anaerobic bacteria, can survive and even thrive in environments without oxygen.
Anaerobic bacteria are unable to survive in the presence of oxygen. These bacteria can only grow in environments devoid of oxygen or with very low oxygen levels. Examples of anaerobic bacteria include Clostridium and Bacteroides species.
Anaerobic bacteria are organisms that cannot survive in the presence of oxygen. They rely on alternative metabolic processes to generate energy in environments with low or no oxygen. Examples include some species of bacteria found in the human gut or extreme environments like deep-sea hydrothermal vents.
Aerobic Respiration is a respiration of a bacteria with oxygen. Glucose + Oxygen --> Energy + Water + Carbon Dioxide Anaerobic Respiration is a respiration of a bacteria without the presence of oxygen.

Obligate aerobes require oxygen to survive. These bacteria rely on oxygen for their energy production and metabolism. Without oxygen, they are unable to grow.
Facultative anaerobes. These bacteria can switch between aerobic and anaerobic metabolism depending on the availability of oxygen in their environment.
