Why bacteria produce toxins?
Bacteria produce toxins as a byproduct. They are formed when the bacteria produce energy for themselves by changing one substance into another, and in some cases, there are byproducts, some of which can be toxins.
What is chemosynthetic bacteria?
Chemosynthetic bacteria means bacteria that can make chemical things (synthetic). Basically any bacteria are chemosynthetic - they all product different chemicals as part of their metabolism. There are methanogens that produce methane gas, there are photosynthetic organisms that produce oxygen (like plants, and the ancestry of plants), others can produce nitrogen gas, like those bacteria that live in nodules on legume plants. Other bacteria can produce acids from fermentation like proprionic acid which gives Swiss cheese its nutty flavor. So lots and lots of bacteria are chemosynthetic. It just depends on what you want to produce.
Where does bacteria get energy?
By feeding on other organisms. Some bacterias are also photosynthetic and are able to produce energy using sunlight. Others are also chemotrophic and are able to produce energy using inorganic chemicals.
What does bacteria that are adapted to live without oxygen combine carbon dioxide and hydrogen to produce?
Methane is correct
What makes some bacteria harmful?
some bacteria produce toxins in their metabolism which is harmful for humans. if you have used antibiotics, the normal, good, bacteria that live in your body can be replaced by a pathogen, which will make you sick.
What are bacteria the can produce their own food without using the suns energy called?
Chemoautotrophic
Does chemosynthetic bacteria need sunlight to grow?
Chemosynthetic bacteria does not require sunlight to live and derives the nutrients from nonfood sources. Examples of chemosynthetic bacteria are lactobacillus and streptococcus.

What are the chemicals that bacteria use to produce and store energy?
photosynthesis
What are methanogenic bacteria and how do they produce methane?
NO bacteria are methanogenic, archaea are methanogenic. And they produce it through a process called chemolithoautotrophy, where they break down the inorganic molecules into energy.
What are bacteria that can produce their food without using the suns energy called?
Chemoautotrophic

What Transgenic bacteria can be used to produce?
Genetically modified bacteria can be used to produce. This is a transgenic bacteria.
What is the process by which plants and some bacteria use the energy from sunlight to produce sugar?
Photosynthesis is the answer
How does a strictly fermentative bacterium produce energy?
Strictly fermentative bacteria produce ATP, but only through glycolysis.
