Postby klapausius » Wed Oct 06, 2010 2:06 pm

i do realize that Chemoautotrophs can aquire its carbon source from CO2
however can it aquire its Carbon source from glucose if it was given? or will it stick to Co2 or both?

I would guess it's analog of plants, it's just about, what's more available, CO2 or sugar?
