Aerobe Definitions:

  1. An organism that grows in the presence of molecular oxygen, which it uses as a terminal electron acceptor in aerobic respiration.

    Essential Microbiology by Stuart Hogg



  2. A microorganism that lives and grows in the presence of free gaseous oxygen (O2).

    Foundations in Microbiology by Kathleen Park Talaro, Arthur Talaro



Aerobe Notes:

Aerobes are organisms that grow and reproduce if there is presence of oxygen in the environment. There are certain bacteria and yeasts, which survive as aerobes. In aerobic respiration, this oxygen molecule that is used by these organisms, acts as a terminal electron acceptor. Obligate aerobes strictly grow in the presence of oxygen.
