/ˌkɛmə(ʊ)ˈsɪnθᵻsɪs/, U.S.

/ˌkimoʊˈsɪnθəsəs/,

/ˌkɛmoʊˈsɪnθəsəs/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a German lexical item. Etymons: chemo- comb. form, synthesis n.

Etymology: < chemo- comb. form + synthesis n., after German Chemosynthese ( W. Pfeffer Pflanzenphysiologie (ed. 2) I. (1897) vii. 273; compare quot. 1900). Compare earlier photosynthesis n. and chemosynthetic adj.

Biology.

The process (or series of processes) by which certain microorganisms produce energy by oxidation reactions in the absence of light and utilize this in the synthesis of complex organic compounds; chemotrophy.
