Would it be correct to assume that prokaryotes can undergo aerobic respiration as well, as long as there is oxygen present? I thought that prokaryotes could use their plasma membrane to serve as a substitute for the inner mitochondrial membrane. Also, the presence of facultative and obligate anaerobes seems to suggest this.
This question seems to automatically assume that since E. coli is a prokaryote, it will be undergo anaerobic respiration. Since the E. coli is reserved in the human gut, I am assuming that there is access to oxygen.
Also, what kinds of organisms are we supposed to remember to classify as eukaryote? I only took note of plants, fungi, animal and I didn't know that a paramecium was a eukaryote
Thanks for your help!
