What is a living thing that eats producers?

Organism's that make their own food are called?
Organisms that make their own food are called autotrophs.
Can Amoeba make it own food?
Amoeba can not make it own food because it is not autotrophs since it has no chloroplast.
Which type of cell make its own food?
a plant cell containing chloroplsts make its own food
How does plankton stay away from their enemies?
they make there own food and they dont have an enemy.
Why are plant plankton called producers?

What are the type of plankton that produces most of the food in an aquatic ecosystem?
Phytoplankton make their own food from sunlight.
Are plant plankton producers?

How does plankton participate in the oxygen cycle?
Some plankton are photosynthetic, which means that they "make their own food" from the sunlight, much like plants. Most photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and creates oxygen. The oxygen can be dissolved into the water.
Organism that can make its own food using photosynthesis or chemosynthesis?
planton. IT's not plankton* Its a producer.
Do animal cells make there own food?
Autotrophs are animals that make their own food. One example of an autotroph would be plankton however, in general, animals are heterotrophs and therefore obtain their carbon and nutrients through consuming the producers of the food chain. This is then broken down via digestion and transported to cells.
Is phytoplankton a producer?
Yes it is; and one of its consumers is zoo plankton.
What is a living thing that eats producers?
the producers make life possible for the consumers. Such as plants, insects, and plankton.
