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.

What organelle would you not find in a plant cell? Chloroplasts,centrioles,central vacuole,or cell wall?
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Centrioles

Explanation:

If we look at ths other options Chloroplast and Cell Wall are both needed for a plant to survive and function. So we automatically know that it's going to be there so those aren't an option. We know that both animal and plant cells have a vacuole but plant cells have larger ones so we know that's not an answer. Leaving us with the only other possible answer left, Centrioles.
