Student activity

Students use the information sheet to compare and contrast photosynthesis with chemosynthesis. It is a great way to improve and secure students knowledge of the process of photosynthesis. Students sort the similarities and differences between the two processes into a Venn diagram.

There are two information sheets for the students to choose from to help differentiate the activity. The information sheets contain a lively text describing hydrothermal vents as a rich habitat for chemosynthetic organisms.
