What kind of organisms do chemosynthesis?
Some organisms that rely on chemosynthesis to derive the energy they need include nitrifying bacteria, sulfur-oxidizing bacteria, sulfur-reducing bacteria, iron-oxidizing bacteria, halobacterium, bacillus, clostridium, and vibrio, among others. The energy source for chemosynthesis may be elemental sulfur, hydrogen sulfide, molecular hydrogen, ammonia, manganese, or iron. Examples of chemoautotrophs include bacteria and methanogenic archaea living in … Read more
