Rain forests are huge carbon sinks, as plants and trees actively remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store the carbon in biomass. This is a vital ecosystem service for counteracting climate change. Forests regulate the climate, as evapotranspiration from forests influence precipitation patterns and the temperature. Many as yet underdiscovered plants may be of benefit to us as sources of useful products or drugs. Rain forests act as a refuge for vulnerable plant species, thereby protecting them from human over-exploitation and saving biodiversity for future human generations.
Orbits are the result of a perfect balance between the forward motion of a body in space, such as a planet or moon, and the pull of gravity on it from another body in space, such as a large planet or star. ... These forces of inertia and gravity have to be perfectly balanced for an orbit to happen.

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
- there was no sulfur compound added to the medium, that could be used as an electron donor.
- no oxygen was added to the medium so the organism died.
- there is some inhibitory chemical that is preventing the growth of the bacterium.
- you were using the wrong type of sunlight as the energy source for the bacterium.
Answer:
There was no sulfur compound added to the medium, that could be used as an electron donor.
Explanation:
In the given question, the bacteria which are found in the pond uses light energy to use carbon dioxide and form the glucose molecule. These bacteria are known as phototrophic bacteria.
The process of photosynthesis requires an electron donor and an electron acceptor to use molecule.
The organism when provided the light and carbon dioxide artificially in a culture, the bacteria were not able to grow. The reason for this could be accounted as that there was no electron donor found in the media like sulfur which could donate the electron during the chain reaction.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
