Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -They carryout photosynthesis and nitrogen-fixation.
Detailed explanation-2: -The uptake hydrogenase is located in the heterocysts of cyanobacteria, a differentiated structure specialized for nitrogen fixation into which cell division and photosynthesis are arrested, providing a microaerobic environment for oxygen-sensitive nitrogenase and hydrogenase.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cyanobacteria are photoautotrophic bacteria obtaining their carbon and energy by photosynthesis, while heterotrophic bacteria rely on organic compounds as their carbon and energy source.
Detailed explanation-4: -Thus, the correct answer is ‘Heterocysts.
