Solution

The correct option is B Cyanobacteria
  • Bacteria get their food in many ways. Photosynthetic bacteria make their own food. (Eg. Cyanobacteria).
  • Bacteria that live in harsh environment use chemicals (Ammonia, hydrogen sulphide) to produce their food instead of utilizing energy from the sun. This process is called chemosynthesis
