 | | Anaerobic cocci are not involved in any single specific disease process; rather, they may be present in a great variety of infections involving all areas of the human body (Fig. |  | | Not all anaerobic cocci require stringent anaerobic conditions; for example, strains of Streptococcus intermedius are quite aerotolerant and may grow under reduced oxygen tension. |  | | The anaerobic cocci are a physiologically diverse group that has recently undergone significant taxonomic changes. |

 | | Organisms that live in environments without oxygen, such as anaerobic fungi and protozoa (a type of protist), don’t use mitochondria at all —- instead their power is generated by hydrogenosomes, organelles that, while similar in many ways to mitochondria, follow a different metabolic pathway. |  | | While mitochondria need oxygen to produce energy, hydrogenosomes produce energy under anoxic conditions. |  | | But not all eukaryotes rely on mitochondria for their energy. |
