An organism that grows on media incubated in carbon dioxide but not in ambient air or anaerobically is considered

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Capnophilic organisms require an atmosphere with a higher concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) than is found in ambient air to grow. They do not necessarily require the absence of oxygen but do need elevated levels of CO2, which is why they grow in environments or media incubated with added CO2 but not in ambient air or strictly anaerobic conditions.
