Finding parasites that don't require oxygen is like discovering students who actually read the syllabus—rare and slightly terrifying. These anaerobic rebels are living their best life without mitochondria, the supposed "powerhouse of the cell." While we're all slaves to oxygen, these parasites basically said "nah" to the entire respiratory chain. Evolution really outdid itself here—creating organisms that survive in oxygen-free environments by fermenting nutrients instead. Next time someone tells you mitochondria are essential, just point to these microscopic badasses who clearly didn't get the memo.
