aerotactic
Aerotaxis is the sensory response of an organism to air or gas molecules in its environment. This response is crucial for various organisms, including bacteria, plants, and animals. Aerotactic responses allow organisms to navigate towards or away from their surroundings to optimize their growth, development, and survival.
Bacteria are one of the most well-studied examples of aerotactic response. They use chemotaxis and aerotaxis
Plants also exhibit aerotactic responses to their environment. They use small membrane-bound organelles called chloroplasts to
Aerotactic responses have significant implications for the study of bioremediation, for example. Microorganisms with aerotactic response
