What are Anoxic conditions?

Answer 1

Anaerobic means able to live without air or oxygen, like some bacteria. One example is botulism.

In human metabolism, the term anaerobic applies to ATP use and glycosis to provide energy in the muscle cells. This does not require oxygen, but is rapidly depleted and can result in a buildup of lactic acid in the cells.

Answer 2

Anoxic conditions refer to environments that lack oxygen. In such conditions, organisms that require oxygen for respiration may struggle to survive, leading to shifts in the types of organisms that dominate the ecosystem. Anoxic conditions can occur naturally in bodies of water or soil, or may be the result of pollution or human activities.

Answer 3

The prefix "an" means without

and "aero" means air or in this case oxygen

so aerobic means using air, and anaerobic not using air

Typically this is referring to metabolic processes when an organism is burning energy in the presence or absence of oxygen.

Answer 4

Anaerobic means to require an absence of free oxygen. In home-wine making, for instance, the anaerobic stage is when a fermenting wine is enclosed in a container with only a fermentation trap to allow the carbon dioxide to escape, but which also keeps out oxygen.

Answer 5

This is related to anaerobiosis, in other words, the life under anaerobic conditions. Such conditions imply the absence of oxygen or the environment or atmosphere devoid of oxygen, therefore no requiring the presence of molecular oxygen for growth, that is, it is not capable of using molecular oxygen for growth (also called: anoxybiontic or anoxybiotic).

Answer 6

A condition in which Oxygen is only available in a combined form swuch as Nitrate, Nitrite or SO4 in aqueous environment.....

Answer 7

absence of oxygen
