  • It is found that target genes responsible for atmospheric chemosynthesis were abundantly distributed in polar soils of the Antarctic, the Arctic and Tibetan Plateau in the Hindu Kush-Himalayas.
  • Chemosynthesis is the process through which bacteria or other living organisms derive energy from reactions involving inorganic chemicals typically in the absence of sunlight.
  • This process is also called carbon fixation, through which inorganic carbon is converted to organic compounds by living organisms and stored as a form of energy.

Verifying, please be patient.
