Detailed explanation-3: -Aerobic bacteria (or aerobes) are the bacteria that survive and grow only in the presence of oxygen in their environment.

Detailed explanation-4: -Aerobic respiration in bacteria, Archaea, and mitochondria is performed by oxygen reductase members of the heme-copper oxidoreductase superfamily. These enzymes are redox-driven proton pumps which conserve part of the free energy released from oxygen reduction to generate a proton motive force.
