Question

There are specialized producers that live in warm water vents deep in the ocean. These producers do not per-form from photosynthesis, but instead perform a similar process with iron and other chemicals. Why do you think these producers use this process instead of photosynthesis?

Answer 1

There is no sunlight in the ocean therefore these producers cannot use photosynthesis because sunlight is a crucial factor in photosynthesis.

Hope that helps :)
