Photoautotrophs are
organisms that can
utilize light energy from
sunlight and
elements (such as carbon) from
inorganic compounds to
produce organic materials...
- gram-negative cyanobacterium. This
bacterium is non-nitrogen-fixing
photoautotroph. It has been
isolated in
Chenghai Lake, China, soda

primary producers can
convert the
energy in the
light (phototroph and
photoautotroph) or the
energy in
inorganic chemical compounds (chemotrophs or chemolithotrophs)...

sulfur bacteria) they can be also
called lithotrophs, and so, some
photoautotrophs are also
called photolithoautotrophs.
Examples of
phototroph organisms...

Photoautotrophs,
