Chemotrophs, or 'chemical-fed', use inorganic or organic compounds and oxidize them to convert chemical energy into high-energy ATP bonds.
Los quimiotrofos, o 'alimentados por químicos', utilizan compuestos inorgánicos u orgánicos y oxidan estos compuestos para convertir la energía química en energía de enlaces de alta energía del ATP.
