Some bacteria are heterotrophs and cannot make their own food. Instead, Heterotrophic bacteria must consume other organisms or the food that other organisms make. Heterotrophic bacteria may consume a variety of foods--from milk and meat, which you might also eat, to the decaying leaves on a forest floor
