Chemoautotrophic bacteria require H²S, O², and CO², obtaining energy by oxidizing H²S, which is then used for photosynthesis.
Las bacterias quimioautótrofas requieren H²S, O² y CO² y obtienen energía oxidando H²S, que luego utilizan para la fotosíntesis.

|---|---|
| Back | H²S, O², CO² They oxidize hydrogen sulphide (H²S) to obtain energy. Then they use H²S to store this energy into CO² 2H²S + O² → Energy + 2H²O + 2S CO² + H²S → (CH²O)n + H²O + 2S |
