Non-contaminated lakes are “aerobic” (oxygenated) and maintain “oligotrophic” (very low levels of nutrients) condition. Limited number algae grow in such lakes due to limited amount of nutrient available to them. Such lakes are also suitable for the fish population and support aerobic microbes. Facultative anaerobic organism cannot survive in such environment. A facultative anaerobic organism [...]
