Photosynthesis cycles matter and energy in many environments. Explain how chemosynthesis cycles matter and energy in extreme environments.

Chemosynthesis cycles matter and energy in extreme environments by releasing or absorbing energy present in the fluids by the microbes.

Chemosynthesis is a process in which specific type of microbes create energy through chemical reactions. The animals that live around hydrothermal vents take food from the chemicals coming out of the seafloor in the vent fluids.

The energy present in the matter of the fluid is taken as a food by the microbes so we can conclude that Chemosynthesis cycles matter and energy in extreme environments by releasing or absorbing energy present in the fluids.

Chemosynthesis is the biological processing of organic materials, using the energy produced by the oxidation of inorganic or organic compounds from one-carbon molecules and nutrients (C-1).

Explanation:

In chemosynthesis, energy contained in hydrogen sulfide and methane chemical reactions are used by the bacteria living on sea or in animals to obtain glucose from water or carbon dioxide.

a) carbon, hydrogen

b) carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen

c) carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus

d) sugar

e) amino acid

f) nucleotide
