Match each type of organism with the best description of its oxygen requirements. an organism that requires an oxygen-free environment: obligate anaerobe an organism that requires oxygen to survive: obligate aerobe an organism that requires a low concentration of oxygen (less than the oxygen concentration in the atmosphere): facultative anaerobe an organism that grows equally well with or without oxygen: facultative anaerobe an organism that can grow without oxygen but that grows best with oxygen: aerotolerant anaerobes
