EXAMPLE SENTENCES

Microbiologists studied the aerotaxis of bacteria moving toward oxygen-rich areas. Aerotaxis plays a crucial role in the survival of aerobic aquatic microorganisms. Under the microscope, cells demonstrated positive aerotaxis toward air bubbles. The experiment evaluated how oxygen concentrations alter bacterial aerotaxis. Disrupting cell receptors can effectively disable normal aerotaxis in bacteria.
