The correct answer is letter B

Designation of the group of bacteria, not related to each other, that use sulfur, sulfides or sulfates in their metabolism. The photoautotrophic, green or red anaerobic bacteria use hydrogen sulfide as a source of electrons for photosynthesis, producing sulfur as a final product. Sulfur oxidizing cheiautotrophic bacteria, or their compounds, produce sulfates as the final product. The sulphate-reducing heterotrophic anaerobic bacteria need sulphates for their breathing, obtaining energy by reducing sulfur or hydrogen sulphide.
