OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Many organisms that undergo chemosynthesis use hydrogen sulphide (H2S) instead of sunlight to fuel the processes that convert carbon dioxide into sugars.

Explanation:

Prokaryotic microorganisms, principally bacteria and archaea (referred to as “bacteria” in the following), carry out chemosynthetic reactions. Energy is produced in chemosynthetic reactions from oxidizing reduced compounds.

Chemosynthesis is the conversion of carbon (usually carbon dioxide or methane) into organic matter using inorganic molecules (hydrogen or hydrogen sulphide) or methane as an energy source. Most energy is initially derived from sunlight via plant photosynthesis. Example, bacteria and methanogenic archaea living in deep sea vents
