Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the typical oxygen requirement for Actinomyces species?
  • Step 1: Understand what Actinomyces species are. They are a type of bacteria.
  • Step 2: Learn about oxygen requirements for bacteria. Some need oxygen to grow, while others do not.
  • Step 3: Know the term 'facultative anaerobes.' This means these bacteria can grow with or without oxygen.
  • Step 4: Conclude that Actinomyces species can survive in both environments, making them flexible in their oxygen needs.
