Best Answer

An autotroph is an organism that creates its own food using an energy source, such as sunlight. Plants and algae are the most important autotrophs. However, like all animals, Brontosaurus is a heterotroph, meaning that it must consume an energy source. Brontosaurus consumed plants to get its energy.

A heterotroph is an organism that must consume food in order to give itself the energy it needs to live. All animals are heterotrophs, including dinosaurs such as Brontosaurus. Note that Brontosaurus is actually an invalid name for Apatosaurus.
