Why do bacteria make their own food

Some bacteria(not all) are autotrophic bacteria which means that they can make their own food.These bacteria can be separated into two groups

  1. photosynthetic bacteria
  2. chemosynthetic bacteria
  • photosynthetic bacteria contains bacteriochlorophyll which is dispersed in their cytoplasm and so they are able to make their organic food by the process of photosynthesis.e.g green sulphur bacteria,purple sulphur bacteria etc
  • chemosynthetic bacteria oxidize inorganic compounds like ammonia,nitrate,nitrite,sulphur or iron and trap the energy and prepare their food.e.g nitrifying bacteria are chemosynthetic.
