What is the difference between autotrophs and heterotrophs in terms of whether the cells perform photosynthesis and or cellular respiration?

Autotrophs are organisms that can perform photosynthesis to produce their own food using sunlight, while heterotrophs cannot perform photosynthesis and rely on consuming other organisms for food.
