Photosynthesis cycles matter and energy in many environments. Explain how chemosynthesis cycles matter and energy in extreme environments. Explain your answer in 1-2 sentences.

Chemosynthesis is a process by which certain bacteria use inorganic compounds, such as hydrogen sulfide or methane, to produce organic molecules without the need for sunlight. This cycle of matter and energy allows life to exist in extreme environments such as deep sea hydrothermal vents or dark caves where sunlight is not available.
