Answer

The correct answer is A) uses oxygen or grows without oxygen.

A facultative anaerobe is an organism that can use oxygen for cellular respiration when it is available, but can also grow and produce energy anaerobically (without oxygen) if oxygen is absent. This flexibility allows facultative anaerobes to thrive in various environments.
