Without it there would be no life at the bottom of the sea Chemosynthesis Without it there would be no life at the bottom of the sea

Where Is It Found? Chemosynthesis is not everywhere, it’s only found deep in the ocean, near thermal vents.

What Uses Chemosynthesis? There is a Bacteria that is capable of doing this. It live inside other animals like the red tube-worm.

What’s Chemosynthesis? Chemosynthesis is a way of turning carbon into energy, for an organism.

Why Does it Matter? There is no light deep in the ocean, so autotrophs must make food another way, so they use Chemosynthesis.
