Chemosynthesis is a process by which certain organisms produce energy by converting inorganic molecules into organic compounds using chemical energy. This process is similar to photosynthesis but does not require sunlight. Organisms that use chemosynthesis are typically found in environments such as hydrothermal vents in the deep ocean, where they can utilize chemicals such as hydrogen sulfide or methane to generate energy. Some examples of organisms that use chemosynthesis include certain bacteria, archaea, and some types of tubeworms and mussels.
