Photoautotrophs: Bacteria that use sunlight as their energy source and carbon dioxide (as part of photosynthesis) as their carbon source. These bacteria thus obtain all their nourishment through photosynthesis
Photoheterotrophs: Bacteria that use sunlight as their energy source and organic compounds from the environment as their carbon source.

Are most bacteria photoautotrophs?
No. They are heterotrophs just as you are. They are not usually green as photoautotrophs. They would not be close to the air to get sunlight.
What is a photo-heterotroph?
The photoheterotrophs use light for energy but must get their carbon in organic form.
Autotrophs that utilize light as their energy source are?
Photoautotrophs use light as the energy source for producing proteins, lipids and other organic substances. Examples of photoautotrophs are plants.
Are photosynthetic autotrophs chlorophyllous?
Not necessarily. Phytoplanktons are photoautotrophs but they do not contain chlorophyll
What were the first types of cells able to make their own food?
Photoautotrophs
What is the difference between photoheterotrophs and photoautotrophs?
Photoheterotrophs use organic compounds as their carbon source; photoautotrophs use carbon dioxide as their carbon source.
What is responsible for high levels of oxygen in Earth's atmosphere a. Photoautotrophs b. photoheterotrophs c.chemoautotrophs d. chemoheterotrophs that perform decomposition e.parasitic chemoheter..?
B.
What is the main pigment of photoautotrophs?
Photoautotrophs are photosynthetic organisms.They mainly have chlorophyll.
Are prokaryotes autotrophs?
They can be, Photoautorophs, Photoheterotrophs, Chemoautotrophs or Chemoheterotrophs
Are most bacteria photoautotrophs?
No. They are heterotrophs just as you are. They are not usually green as photoautotrophs. They would not be close to the air to get sunlight.
What food making process is used by photoautotrophs?
Photoautotrophs use sunlight to make their food also called photosythesis
What reactants do photoautotrophs need for photosynthesis?
Photoautotrophs need water, carbon dioxide, and light energy in order to power photosynthesis.
What cells are found chloroplast?
They are in eukariyotes.They are in photoautotrophs.
What carries on photosynthesis?
Photoautotrophs carry out photosynthesis.
How do organisms make their own food?
Photoautotrophs
Are fungi photoautotrophs?
False, chemoheterotrophs
What is a photo-heterotroph?
The photoheterotrophs use light for energy but must get their carbon in organic form.
