How does chemosynthesis differ from photosynthesis?

Explanation

Chemosynthesis and photosynthesis are both processes that produce organic compounds, but they differ in the source of energy used.Photosynthesis: Uses light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Light-dependent reactions, occurring in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts, capture energy from sunlight.Chemosynthesis: Uses chemical energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and sulfur compounds (or other chemical compounds). Energy is obtained from the oxidation of inorganic substances, such as hydrogen sulfide or methane, rather than from sunlight.
