The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understand the Types of Organisms:** - There are two main types of organisms based on their oxygen requirements: aerobic organisms and anaerobic organisms. - Aerobic organisms require oxygen for respiration, while anaerobic organisms can survive without oxygen. 2. **Identify Examples of Aerobic Organisms:** - Examples of aerobic organisms include amoeba, yak, and leech. These organisms depend on oxygen for their respiration process. 3. **Understand Anaerobic Organisms:** - Anaerobic organisms can thrive in environments devoid of oxygen. They perform respiration through different biochemical pathways. 4. **Identify an Anaerobic Organism:** - Yeast is an example of an anaerobic organism. It is a unicellular fungus that can perform fermentation in the absence of oxygen. 5. **Explain Yeast's Process:** - In anaerobic conditions, yeast converts pyruvate into alcohol and carbon dioxide, allowing it to generate energy without using oxygen. 6. **Conclusion:** - Therefore, the organism that can live without the oxygen of air is yeast. **Final Answer:** Yeast ---
