chemosynthesis by nayantheboss https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis basics about chemosynthesis en-us 2017-11-25 12:37:10 UTC 2026-02-03 02:31:25 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Manbag.png the process of it and where it occurs nayantheboss123 https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210027586 its when food/glucose is made by using bacteria as the energy source and not sunlight.
it occurs around hydrothermal vents and methane seeps in the deep sea where sunlight is absent]]> 2017-11-25 12:45:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210027586 organisms that carry it out nayantheboss123 https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210027747 -sulphur bacteria
-iron bacteria
-nitrogen bacteria
-hydrogen bacteria]]> 2017-11-25 12:47:54 UTC https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210027747 why did scientists take so long to discover chemosynthesis? nayantheboss123 https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210027844 They didn't have the right equipment to go deep in the ocean. But now since they do such as deep sea diving vessels they discovered it.

fact:
chemosynthesis helped scientists realise that whole ecosystems can be built up from small organisms that can live without sunlight.]]> 2017-11-25 12:48:46 UTC https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210027844 can photosynthesis take place on the floor nayantheboss123 https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210028163 photosynthesis takes place on land and in place where sunlight can reach
so it cant take place on the ocean floor as sunlight cant reach there]]> 2017-11-25 12:52:26 UTC https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210028163 photosynthesis and chemosynthesis similarities and differences nayantheboss123 https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210028267 similarities are:
1. they are both processes by which organisms produce food 
2.they fuel life on earth. they both help provide food and fuel to help plants growth.

differences are:
1.photosynthesis is powered by sunlight
2. chemosynthesis runs on chemical energy
3.photosynthesis takes place where there is sufficient sunlight
3.chemosynthesis takes place in places where sunlight does reach ]]> 2017-11-25 12:54:00 UTC https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210028267 how sulphur bacteria form the starting point of food chains for deep sea volcanic vent communities? nayantheboss123 https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210028822 they first react hydrogen sulphide with carbon dioxide, this produces glucose, water and sulphur. the energy from this hydrogen sulphide is then transferred to the chemosynthesis reaction. As there is no light for photosynthesis , they produce in the deep sea. This means chemosynthesis is the starting point for deep sea food chains]]> 2017-11-25 13:01:37 UTC https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210028822 how important was the discovery of chemosynthesis in terms of the wider ocean floor web? nayantheboss123 https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210030967 There is an animal called the tube worm which lives near volcanic vents. This animal developed a co existent wit the chemosynthetic sulphur bacteria. This bacteria lives in a special organ inside the tube worms. the bacteria makes glucose by chemosynthesis and the tubeworm obtains some of this food and in return the bacteria gets a safe place to live.]]> 2017-11-25 13:27:10 UTC https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210030967 nayantheboss123 https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210031687 2017-11-25 13:35:05 UTC https://padlet.com/nayantheboss123/chemosynthesis/wish/210031687
