Compare and contrast an ecosystem driven by photosynthesis to an ecosystem driven by chemosynthesis.
DerKrebs [107]

Both chemosynthesis and photosynthesis are processes used to create food.

Photosynthesis is a process plants use to create food (glucose), in which plants convert light energy into chemical energy.  

Chemosynthesis is the process by which food (glucose) is made by bacteria using chemicals instead of light energy.

An ecosystem driven by photosynthesis requires sunlight in order to perform photosynthesis.  An ecosystem driven by chemosynthesis does not require sunlight.  instead, chemosynthesis requires bacteria or other living organisms that derive energy from reactions involving inorganic chemicals.

Maksim231197 [3]

The options to the given are:

A) The physical separation of most membranes from each other.

B) the transportation of membrane lipids among the endomembrane system by small  membrane vesicles.

C) The function of the Golgi apparatus in sorting and directing membrane components.

D) The modification of the membrane components once they reach their final  destination.

E) the synthesis of different lipids and proteins in each of the organelles of the  endomembrane system.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

The difference in the lipids and proteins composition of the different membrane is different.

Different endomembrane system have different composition of the lipids and proteins in its membrane according to the function of he membrane.

The sorting and direction of the proteins is the function of golgi body. So, it is by the action of the golgi body that the distribution and the sorting of the protein molecules are done.

The protein once formed need to be modified and sorted before being functional into the organelles.
