Is black mold an autotroph or a heterotroph?

Answer 1

I take it you are refurring to the ability for the the cell to hold lots of water. Herterotrophs do not have a cell wall so their ability to hold water is very minimal, they get to a certain stage and if they cant carry any more they burst. Autotrophes have got cells walls so their ability to hold the water is a lot more. They will hold as much water as they can but they will not bursts due to the effectiveness of the cell wall holding the cell together.

i hope you die

Answer 2

I believe that it is a hetrotroph. Heterotrophs must get their food molecules from another organism by eating it or by absorbing the nutrition (animals, fungi, protozoa, slime molds, some bacteria).

Answer 3

No, unless you put the mold in contact with an opposite figure. That means you need to put the mold in a special spot where all the fungus is made harmless to your immune system. That could take years to find the perfect object though...
