Organisms that use chemosynthesis get their energy from the chemical reactions occurring in their environment. These reactions involve the oxidation of inorganic compounds, such as hydrogen sulfide or methane, to produce energy-rich molecules that the organisms can use as a source of energy. This process is similar to photosynthesis, but instead of using sunlight as an energy source, it uses chemicals.
