Which is one major difference between anaerobic and aerobic respiration? - Electron acceptor Fermentation has a relatively low ATP yield compared to aerobic respiration because - oxidative phosphorylation yields a lot of ATP. Aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration use different ________________, while chemolithotrophs and chemoorganotrophs use different _________________. - electron acceptors / electron donors During fermentation, ______________ compounds both donate and accept electrons, with no need for external electron acceptors, but during respiration, ____________ electron donors are oxidized with exogenous compounds serving as electron acceptors. - organic / inorganic or organic Whether an organism is classified as a photoheterotroph or a photoautotroph depends on its - carbon source. Selective medium differs from differential medium because - selective medium permits growth of a particular microbial type while differential medium is used to distinguish between types of organisms. Organisms able to live in environments with high sugar concentrations are - osmophiles. Obligate anaerobes which are sensitive to O2 would be found growing - only at the bottom of a tube of thioglycolate broth.
