Read: Reverse Electron Flow by Chemoautotrophs - Many energy sources used by chemo-lithotrophs have E0 more positive than NAD+(P)/NAD(P) so how do they make NADPH? Use reverse electron flow to make NADPH for biosynthesis. |

Hydrothermal vent communities are based on what? |
Chemolithotrophy (chemolithoautotrophs) |
|
Populations of chemolithotrophic bacteria can be found in deep sea hydrothermal vents, and often live in symbiotic relationships with other invertebrates. Tube worms (Riftia pachyptila) and clams (Calpytogena magnifica) who live in association with chemolithotrophs at the bottom of the sea have a unique type of _______ that provides the bacteria with a source of _______ and ________ necessary for chemoautotrophic metabolism. The bacteria, in turn, provide the worms and clams with nutrition since all digestive system features are ________. |
hemoglobin oxygen hydrogen sulfide absent |
|
________: uses light as energy source |
phototrophy |
|
________: light mediated ATP synthesis |
photophosphorylation |
|
Use ATP for assimilation of CO2 biosynthesis |
Photoautotrophs |
|
Use ATP for assimilation of organic carbon for biosynthesis |
photoheterotrophs |
|
Read: MOST phototrophs also fix carbon, but some can use or even require organics – all about niche utilization |
