Which plants produce their food by chemosynthesis? Some rare autotrophs produce food through a process called chemosynthesis, rather than through photosynthesis. Autotrophs that perform chemosynthesis do not use energy from the sun to produce food. Instead, they make food using energy from chemical reactions, often combining hydrogen sulfide or methane with oxygen. How do plants […]

What are the advantages of prokaryotes over the eukaryotes?
What are the advantages of prokaryotes over the eukaryotes? Prokaryotes have the advantages associated with greater simplicity, including more rapid reproduction, rapid mutation and adaptation to new environments, and more diverse metabolic systems. They also possess an ability to pass on adaptive genes to other bacteria in the form of plasmids. Why are prokaryotes simpler […]
