Why is it important to know there are good and bad bacteria?

both anaerobic and aerobic respiration use glucose (or other carbohydrates), proteins and lipids to produce atp and nadh. cell uses those energy molecules, obtained from food and   breaks them down during the chemical reactions of respiration. in anaerobic respiration, nadh is regenerated to nad+ by enzymes lactate dehydrogenase (lactate is produced, e.g. in muscle cells) or by alcohol dehydrogenase where ethanol is produced (alcohol fermentation), while in aerobic respiration, electrons from nadh are deposited in the mitochondria to regenerate nad+ (electron transport chain. anaerobic respiration produces 2 atp per molecule of glucose compared to aerobic respiration where about 38 atp molecules are produced.

the flagellates share a facultative mutualist association with termites. mutualism is a biological interaction between individuals of different species, where both benefit from each other. this is called cooperation and it differs from other interactions such as cases of exploitation, such as parasitism, predation. in this interaction called association, both species cooperate and benefit.
