Answer:

Chemoheterolithotroph

Explanation:

Since the bacteria derives energy from chemical compounds rather than from Sun, it is a chemotroph. Chemotrophs are the organisms that derive energy from chemical compounds.

Since the bacteria uses sulfur as fuel, it is chemolithotroph. Chemolithotrophs are the organisms that cannot fix carbon dioxide as the phototrophs do and  use any inorganic compound.
