Respuesta :

i do not really know but i think that the answer is c but wait for other people

Answer.

Chemosynthesis is a biological process that takes place in some bacteria and derives energy from the inorganic chemicals, in the absence of solar light. It involves oxidation of inorganic molecules to make organic molecules, such as  glucose.

Chemosynthesis is performed by bacteria that around methane seeps and hydrothermal vents, where sunlight is not present.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
