The organism that provides evidence that matter and energy can be cycled through an ecosystem without sunlight is a lanternfish on the Atlantic Ocean floor. Lanternfish are able to survive in deep-sea environments where sunlight does not penetrate, and they often rely on chemosynthesis and organic matter that falls from the upper layers of the ocean, illustrating that ecosystems can function without sunlight.
