Yes, it can because when they eat anything that has eaten or is an autotroph (and uses photosynthesis), then it uses the energy that organism produces

How do heterotrophs benefit from the biochemical process of photosynthesis?

Heterotrophs benefit from photosynthesis primarily by obtaining energy indirectly through the food chain. Photosynthesis converts solar energy into chemical energy stored in glucose and oxygen, which plants produce and release. Heterotrophs consume these plants (or other organisms that have eaten plants) to obtain the energy and organic compounds necessary for their survival. Additionally, the oxygen released during photosynthesis is essential for cellular respiration in heterotrophs.


How does man benefit from photosynthesis in plants?

humans benefit from photosynthesis, by receiving, obviously oxygen, which is required for cellular respiration, but plants also provide, glucose, which we heterotrophs need, to perform cellular respiration again, so we benefit by receiving oxygen and glucose, or O2 and C6H12O6.


Do heterotrophs consume ATP during photosynthesis?

No


How do heterotrophs and heterotrophs. differ?

Autotrophs make their own food through photosynthesis. Heterotrophs obtain nourishment by eating other organisms.


Do heterotrophs produce ATP during photosynthesis?

No they do not. They are not photosynthetic


Which process occurs in both heterotrophs and autotrophs?

photosynthesis


How does photosynthesis benefit heterotrohs?

Photosynthesis benefits heterotrophs by producing oxygen and organic compounds that are essential for their survival. During photosynthesis, plants and other autotrophs convert sunlight into chemical energy, creating glucose and releasing oxygen as a byproduct. Heterotrophs, which cannot produce their own food, rely on these organic compounds for energy and the oxygen for respiration. Thus, photosynthesis forms the foundation of the food chain, supporting all life forms that depend on consuming other organisms.


How do Autotroph's differ from heterotrophs?

autotrophic animals are different from heterotrophs because autotrophs produce their own food by photosynthesis while heterotrophs move around in search of food


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. Both autotrophs and heterotrophs perform cellular respiration to convert organic compounds into energy, regardless of their ability to photosynthesize.


Is a goldfish a heterotroph or a autotroph?

A goldfish is a heterotrophs. Heterotrophs get food from outside sources. Autotrophs make their own food by photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.


Are mackerel autotrophs or heterotrophs?

Mackerel are heterotrophs because they obtain their energy by consuming other organisms as they are carnivorous fish. They cannot produce their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
