phototrophs

photosynthetic phototrophs convert sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis.

marine phototrophs form the base of oceanic food webs.

cyanobacteria are oxygenic phototrophs that produce oxygen.

anoxygenic phototrophs do not release oxygen during photosynthesis.

phototrophs thrive in sunlight-rich environments like coral reefs.

algae serve as primary phototrophs in freshwater ecosystems.

phototrophs use chlorophyll to capture light energy.

bacterial phototrophs play crucial roles in sulfur cycles.

phototrophs and heterotrophs maintain ecological balance in nature.

purple bacteria are phototrophs that use infrared light.

phototrophs require carbon dioxide for photosynthetic processes.

extremophile phototrophs can survive in harsh volcanic environments.

green sulfur bacteria are phototrophs that perform anoxygenic photosynthesis.
