Exam points

  • Distinguish photoautotrophs from chemoautotrophs by energy source: light for photoautotrophs versus oxidation of simple inorganic substances for chemoautotrophs.
  • Identify methanogens as Archaea that produce methane in anaerobic environments, and relate halophiles or methanogens to high-salt or anaerobic habitats when shown in exam evidence.
