Question
Chapter 11.2, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
The chemoorganotrophs are those conserve energy from the organic chemical. The energy is conserved in the form of oxidations in the chemoorganotrophs and the trapped energy is stored inside the cells releases energy in the form of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP).
