Biology
1 answer:
DerKrebs [107]3 years ago
4 0

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.

All macromolecules have carbon atom and the hydrogen atom.

<h3>What are macromolecules?</h3>

The term macromolecules refers to the molecules that are composed of smaller units. These smaller units are called monomers. The macromolecules that we are concerned with here are the macromolecules that could be found in the human body.

The biological macromolecules are often very large as we can see. This is because the number of units that are joined to form the macromolecules are usually very much. There are thousands of monomer molecules that are joined together to give proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and the nucleic acid macromolecules.

All the macromolecules have the carbon atom and the hydrogen atom. These are found across all the macromolecules. The carbohydrates are reducing sugars thus they contain the carbonyl bond. The carbonyl group is absent in lipids, nucleic acids, proteins, and amino hence they do not undergo carbonyl reduction reactions.
