It's letter A - Obligate anaerobe.

<em>Obligate anaerobes</em> are microorganisms killed by normal atmospheric concentrations of oxygen. A <em>facultative anaerobe</em> prefers to produce energy in the presence of oxygen but can survive without it. <span>A <em>photoautotroph </em>is an organism that converts light energy into chemical energy. </span><span>Prokaryotes may perform </span>aerobic<span> (oxygen-requiring) or </span>anaerobic<span> (non-oxygen-based) metabolism and some can switch between these modes. Since we're talking about an environment without oxygen and dies when exposed to oxygen, the preferable answer is A.</span>

What is a organelle
bija089 [108]
<span>An organelle is a functional subunit enclosed by a membrane within a eukaryotic cell. The name "organelle" means little organ and the name comes from the analogy with organs: what an organ is to a body, an organelle is to a cell. So, the organelle is the organ of the cell. There are different types of organelles in cells, such as nucleus, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum, chloroplasts, vacuoles, and they all have a different function. For example, the nucleus is the organelle which main function is control of cell activities. Mitochondria are organelles which main function is energy production. </span>

How does natural selection “drive” evolution?
yanalaym [24]

Because predators and prey must learn (or adapt) new ways of survival. Deer over time have learned to be much more sensitive to the surrounding environment, therefore, a deer's predator must also adapt/evolve and learn how to beat the deer at it's own game and catch it for food. Animals must evolve/adapt to any given environment. If humans lived in Antarctica for thousands of years, we would eventually be able to withstand the cold due to evolution. People who live in the Himalayas today actually breath normally at such high altitudes whereas if someone who lives at sea level went to where the Himalayan people lived, the result could potentiality be fatal because the body has not adapted/evolved at that point to withstand minimal oxygen.
