During chemosynthesis, producers use inorganic compounds, primarily hydrogen sulfide or methane, as their energy source. They convert these compounds, along with carbon dioxide and water, into organic matter. This process occurs in environments lacking sunlight, such as deep-sea vents, and supports ecosystems by providing food for various organisms. Unlike photosynthesis, which relies on sunlight, chemosynthesis harnesses chemical energy from the environment.
What else can I help you with?
How do producers that live above thermocline make food?
They Use Chemosynthesis.
How do producers in the ocean make food above the thermocline layer?
They Use Chemosynthesis.
What materials do producers use to make food during chemosynthesis?
Producers that use chemosynthesis typically use inorganic compounds such as hydrogen sulfide, iron, and ammonia as energy sources. These compounds are converted into organic molecules through chemical reactions that do not require sunlight, enabling organisms to produce food in environments where sunlight is not available.
You mean the kind of producer that eats?
Producers do not in themselves actually eat. They are autotrophic, meaning they make their own food. This is done through either photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
WHAT ARE the two producers use to make their own energy rich molecules?
Photosynthesis & Chemosynthesis
What do you call organisms that make food?
Organisms that make their own food are called autotrophs. They are capable of synthesizing organic compounds from inorganic materials using energy from sunlight (photosynthesis) or inorganic chemical reactions (chemosynthesis).
How do most primary producers make their own food?
Most primary producers, such as plants, algae, and some bacteria, use photosynthesis to make their own food. They use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce glucose (sugar) and oxygen. Some primary producers, like certain bacteria, can also use chemosynthesis where they acquire energy from chemical reactions to make food.
Make own food in process called?
Photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
Does the most energy in food come from sunlight?
Energy is most food does indeed come from sunlight. Producers are the most abundant food source and producers make their food from sunlight during photosynthesis.
What two things producers make?
Producers make,food &oxygen
Where do producers get the carbon dioxide they need to make food?
Producers get the carbon dioxide they need to make food from the atmosphere. They take in carbon dioxide during photosynthesis, a process in which they convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen using sunlight.
Producers in a hydrothermal vent community are?
There are none. No sunlight penetrates that deep, so there is no sunlight for photosynthesis. Instead, bacteria use chemosynthesis. They take the chemicals in the water shooting out of the vents, and make it into food.
