CARBON SOURCES.... nonsulfur (purple & green) bacteria are photoheterotrophs, so they use organic compounds, such as alcohols, fatty acids, other organic acids and carbs, as sources of carbon. If using Tortora, Funke & Case Microbiology text, then you can read this in Chapter 5!
What else can I help you with?
Is deeply buried soil bacteria photosynthetic?
No, deeply buried soil bacteria are typically not photosynthetic. They rely on organic matter for energy and are adapted to low-oxygen environments where photosynthesis is not possible.
Are animals photosynthetic?
No, animals are not photosynthetic. Photosynthesis is a process carried out by plants, algae, and some bacteria to convert sunlight into energy, while animals obtain energy by consuming other organisms or organic matter.
Is a Photosynthetic a decomposer?
Yes, bacteria are decomposers. Note: If you search decomposer in the search box it will give more detail
Is colpidium photosynthetic or heterotrophic?
Maybe you should find your own answer in a book or website
Is vinegar an organic or inorganic compound substance?
The ingredient in vinegar that gives the characteristic taste and odor is ethanoic acid (acetic acid). This is an organic compound with the formula: CH3.COOH In vinegar, ethanoic acid makes up only some 5% of the total, the rest being mainly water, which is inorganic. So, vinegar is dilute acetic acid and is an organic compound substance.
Is deeply buried soil bacteria photosynthetic?
No, deeply buried soil bacteria are typically not photosynthetic. They rely on organic matter for energy and are adapted to low-oxygen environments where photosynthesis is not possible.
Are animals photosynthetic?
No, animals are not photosynthetic. Photosynthesis is a process carried out by plants, algae, and some bacteria to convert sunlight into energy, while animals obtain energy by consuming other organisms or organic matter.

Photosynthetic bacteria obtain energy by removing electrons from inorganic molecules is true or false?
True. Photosynthetic bacteria obtain energy by removing electrons from inorganic molecules through a process called photosynthesis. This allows them to generate ATP and ultimately produce organic compounds for their growth and metabolism.
Does Organic compound contain carbon and are usually found in living matter?
Yes,Organic compound are usually found in living matter but they do not contain carbon .They contain nitrogenous compounds which convert into nitrates by nitrifying bacteria.
Is benzine an organic compound?
Yes, it is an organic compound.
Will water work as an organic compound?
No, it is not an organic compound.
Is nitroglycerin an organic or an inorganic compound?
Organic compound
Is acetone an organic or inorganic compound?
Acetone is an organic compound.
Is ethanol an organic or inorganic compound?
Ethanol is an organic compound.
Why do photosynthetic sulfur bacteria use hydrogen sulfide?
Photosynthetic sulfur bacteria use hydrogen sulfide because it can serve as an electron donor in the process of photosynthesis. They can use the energy from oxidizing hydrogen sulfide to convert carbon dioxide into organic compounds, similar to how plants use sunlight. This process allows them to thrive in anaerobic environments where other energy sources may be limited.
Is carbohydrate organic or organic compound?
ORGANIC
