Question

How is chemosynthesis and photosynthesis similar?

• A. Both are found in hydrophytes
• B. Both are associated with heterotrophy
• C. Both are dependent on solar energy
• D. Both are autotrophic mode of nutrition

Answer 1

The correct option is D Both are autotrophic mode of nutrition

Photosynthesis and chemosynthesis are both processes by which organisms produce food; photosynthesis is powered by sunlight while chemosynthesis runs on chemical energy. Therefore, both are an autotrophic mode of nutrition.

So, the correct option is 'Both are autotrophic mode of nutrition'.
