How do obligate aerobes and obligate anaerobes differ in their interactions with the atmosphere? a. obligate aerobes require oxygen from the atmosphere for survival, while obligate anaerobes do not. b. obligate aerobes release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, while obligate anaerobes release oxygen. c. obligate aerobes take in atmospheric oxygen, while obligate anaerobes take in atmospheric carbon dioxide. d. obligate aerobes cannot survive in the presence of atmospheric oxygen, while obligate anaerobes can.

The correct answer is option A, that is, obligate aerobes require oxygen from the atmosphere for survival, while obligate anaerobes do not.  

The obligate aerobes refer to the species that need oxygen in order to survive. These organisms only attain energy from aerobic respiration, with the application of oxygen as the final electron acceptor for the electron transport chain.  

On the other hand, obligate anaerobes are the species that do not utilize oxygen, however, they are poisoned by the usual levels of atmospheric oxygen, and they get killed in the presence of oxygen.
