If we have an facultative aerobe, it already had aerobic respiration. From Wordnik.com. [A critique on the endosymbiotic theory for the origin of mitochondria] Reference

The original "slave" might have been photosynthetic, while the "host" might have been a facultative aerobe thanks to peroxisomes. From Wordnik.com. [A critique on the endosymbiotic theory for the origin of mitochondria] Reference
The growth of the aerobe will use up all the oxygen that reaches it and will not allow any to pass through to the medium below, which will consequently remain in an anaerobic condition. From Wordnik.com. [The Elements of Bacteriological Technique A Laboratory Guide for Medical, Dental, and Technical Students. Second Edition Rewritten and Enlarged.] Reference
Obvious growth in the closed branch as well as in the bulb or in the inverted gas tube as well as in the bulk of the medium will indicate that it is a facultative anaerobe; whilst growth only occurring in the bulb or in the closed branch shows that it is an obligate aerobe or anaerobe respectively. From Wordnik.com. [The Elements of Bacteriological Technique A Laboratory Guide for Medical, Dental, and Technical Students. Second Edition Rewritten and Enlarged.] Reference
The host (facultative aerobe implies facultative anaerobe, doesn't it?) could handle aerobic conditions already, presumably because it had peroxisomes as oxygen sink. t's funny that you mention peroxisomes, as people once thought they were endosymbionts but now evidence seems to point to en origin from the ER.
