plants which cant make their food are called heterotrophic plants
autotrophic
Hetrotrophic
Autotrophs simply 'self feed'. Sunflowers are photo-autotrophs. Like all plants, they need the sun as an energy source, to grow and process their food (starches etc).
Hetero
Plants are autotrophic organisms that produce their own food through photosynthesis, while fungi are heterotrophic organisms that obtain nutrients by absorbing them from their surroundings. Plants have cell walls made of cellulose, while fungi have cell walls made of chitin. Additionally, plants typically have roots, stems, and leaves for structure and support, while fungi consist of mycelium and fruiting bodies.
Fungi are mostly autotrophs but some are heterotroph
Autotrophic respiration is the respiration produced by the roots of plants.
there are two method of nutrition. (a)Autotrophic nutrition :in this method of nutrition organism prepare their own food.(b)Hetrotrophic nutrition:in this method organism depend on aututrophs
Heterotrophic means obtaining ready made organic food from the environment and Autotrophic means manufacturing food from inorganic compounds usually carbon dioxide, water using a source of energy Autotrophic nutrition is a process where plants make food by combining large complex organic molecules such as starch, lipids and protein with simple inorganic molecules like water, carbon dioxide and minerals. Example: plants Hetrotrophic nutrition is where organism feed on organic substances that have been made by other organisms. Examples are animals and fungi

strawberries Autotrophic plant
As autotrophic animals are producing their food by themselves using light energy(solar energy) due to presence of pigments chlorophyll ,so they are independent while hetrotrophic animals doesn't have chlorophyll and obtain their nutrition from autotrophic or animals(they are dependent).therefore,
they are autotrophic
