An organism is discovered living near hydrothermal vents deep in the ocean where sunlight cannot reach. It is found to gain energy through the oxidation of inorganic sulfur compounds present in its environment and uses this energy to turn CO2 into complex organic compounds. Based on this information, how would this organism be best categorized metabolically? Chemoautotroph Chemoheterotroph Photoautotroph O Photoheterotroph

Modes of Nutrition

It is a biological process of providing or obtaining food that is necessary for growth and health. It includes many physiological processes - absorption, ingestion, assimilation, catabolism, excretion, etc. In biology, the science that deals with nutrition's physiological and chemical processes are called "nutritional science."
