22
Q

Oxidation is

A

Loss of electrons

23
Q

Reduction is

A

Gain of electrons.

24
Need only CO2 as a carbon source but obtain energy by oxidizing inorganic substances rather than light
Chemolithoautotrophs
25
Use light to generate ATP but obtain their carbon in organic form. Restricted to certain aquatic prokaryotes
Photoheterotrophs
26
Must consume organic molecules for energy and carbon.
