Passive transport is a movement of biochemicals and other atomic or molecular substances across cell membranes without need of energy input. Unlike active transport, it does not require an input of cellular energy because it is instead driven by the tendency of the system to grow in entropy.

1. With respect to oxygen requirements, an <u>aerobe </u>can use gaseous oxygen and possesses enzymes to process toxic oxygen products.

<h3>What are enzymes?</h3>

Proteins called enzymes aid in accelerating our bodies' chemical reactions, or metabolism. Some compounds are created, while others are broken down. Enzymes are a component of all life. Enzymes are created by our bodies spontaneously.

2.  Expanding on this classification, an <u>obligate </u>aerobe cannot grow without oxygen.

3. Still other organisms, called<u> facultative anaerobes</u>, metabolize by aerobic respiration but can adapt to anaerobic environments.

A facultative anaerobic organism is one that can switch from aerobic respiration to fermentation in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP.

. What is the role of water in this anabolic process
solniwko [45]
Cellular respiration is also a catabolic process because it breaks the small molecules from digestion into even smaller ones as ATP is created. These are both very important processes, because ATP is what your cells use to produce body heat, move your muscles, and other essential bodily functions.
