What organisms do not require oxygen or glucose to live?

None that I know of. Anaerobic bacteria do not need oxygen to survive, and usually die in the presence of oxygen.\n\nTo survive, anaerobic bacteria use two types of repiration to survive: Fermentation and anaerobic repiration, both of which utilize glucose. \n\nThe article does mention that there are times the conversion of pyruvate to acetaldehyde generates CO2 and the conversion of acetaldehyde to ethanol regenerates NAD+. It doesn't mention which bacterium can facilitate said process.

Maybe prokaryotes. But I'm not sure... I think there's still a debate about them cause they're not really living creatures... They are "alive" when they are inside a host, but otherwise, they're just lifeless proteins.. :)

Cells that depend on electron acceptors other than oxygen use anaerobic respiration. Species that depend on oxygen as an electron acceptor are said to use aerobic respiration and are called aerobic organisms. Aerobic respiration produces a lot more energy because oxygen has a very low potential energy compared to the high potential energy in the electrons of NADH.

Bacteria die when they are subjected to higher temperatures.  The only thing that can survive in really high temperatures(around 100 C) are organisms from the Domain Archaea...extremophiles.

Certainly not.  There are tons of unicellular organisms like amoeba and other protozoa that are quite nicely alive, but don't have any form of sexual reproduction, so don't come from an egg.

archae bacteria...virus are not animals since they don't contain both DNA and RNA at the same time...most scientists consider virus as not living...the composition of matter are the cells...its a pleasure helping you...

B) Oxygen\n\nhttp://www.aspb.org/publications/biotext/sumrys/ch12.cfm\n\nWhich is a major reason green plants are our friends!  They take in our waste gas (CO2) in the process of photosynthesis which produces THEIR waste gas, O2, which WE need.\nNow look up the word "symbiosis" as a term to describe that relationship!\n(Glycogen is produced in animals, not plants.)

No, there are some insects that do not require salt to live.

1. respiration is for animals, and phtosynthesis is for vegetals, bacteria and algae.\n\n2. We (animals) use respiration because our cells need a process called gas exchange ( we take Oxygen from the air and exchange it in our cells for carbon dioxide)\n\n3. This is possible for us because our cells have organs called mitocondria, while vegetal cells have chloroplasts.\n\n4.Photosynthesis is an important biochemical process in which plants, algae, and some bacteria harness the energy of sunlight to produce food. Ultimately, nearly all living things depend on energy produced from photosynthesis for their nourishment, making it vital to life on Earth. It is also responsible for producing the oxygen that makes up a large portion of the Earth's atmosphere. Organisms that produce energy through photosynthesis are called photoautotrophs. Half of all photosynthesis comes not from plants, but from bacteria and algae.\n\nResìration involves the use of developed organs such as lungs.\n\n5. Photosynthesis produces energy from sun light, while\nrespiration produces energy from the Oxygen present in pur atmospheric air.

Plants DO breathe oxygen, the same way we do. Respiration is the most effective energy producing process there is.\nPlants, however, can perform another process (photosynthesis) in which they take up CO2 and use the energy of sunlight to build up sugars and starches from this CO2. THEN they can use these starches in the process of respiration, the same way we do (we take sugars and "use" oxygen to take out the energy contained in them)\nSo the only difference betwen us and plants is that they make their own fuel out of CO2 , but we must eat it. But we both breathe oxygen in order to get the energy out of it.\nAs to why the don't breathe hydrogen... you'd have to ask god.... but normally when hydrogen combines with things it requires energy instead of giving rise to it, so it wouldn't be too advantageous\nSo it's not that we produce the CO2 so plants can live. Plants could live without animals, we're the parasites here hehehehe

Livings things have energy only because they aquire it from food. Using this energy they live, survive and do various tasks. When they die, what ever metabolic energy is left is used by the bacteria which decompose the body.

Hmmm. Here goes:\n\nPlants need carbon dioxide, water and sunlight.\n\nHumans need oxygen, water and everything else.

A non-living system, depending on what field you are referring to, can be a system such as a glass of water or a beaker.  Basically any system that is not considered living by biological standards (respiration, etc.) is considered to be a non-living system.

Living things have growth and metabolic activities\nNon living does not have any growth.\n\nliving ex-> man,plants,fish,etc.\nnon living ->building,stone,car,etc.

All organisms have symbiotic relationships. \n\nIn the case of sea horses the most obvious example are the bacteria that live in the gut. Without them the fish becomes much so prone to infection thatit can not survive. And of course the bacteria find the food provided essential to their survival.

Yeast is an organism that metabolizes sugar much the same way you do and produces carbon dioxide.  This carbon dioxide forms bubbles in liquids or dough.  A yeast colony will typically deplete its growth medium of oxygen, (as in the case of bread making or beer making) and use an organic terminal electron acceptor producing alcohol.

Plants dont take away oxygen, they make it.\nPlants taking in what animals and humans breath out and proscesses it through their systems and make it oxygen.\nTry the link-
