Amoebae are heterotrophic, meaning they must eat other organisms to survive.
Protists can be either autotrophic (algae) or heterotrophic (amoeba). See the link below:
An amoeba is not considered an animal because it is unicellular, meaning it is made up of only one cell. Animals are multicellular organisms. Additionally, amoebas are eukaryotic, not prokaryotic, and they are heterotrophic, not autotrophic.
heterotrophic in very basic, general terms: it "engulfs" it's prey. (like an amoeba!)
Euglena is a protist that can exhibit both autotrophic and heterotrophic characteristics. It has chloroplasts like autotrophic organisms for photosynthesis, but can also feed on organic matter for energy like heterotrophs.
Amoeba, paramecium, and spirogyra are all classified as protists, but they belong to different groups within this kingdom. Amoeba and paramecium are both unicellular organisms, with amoeba being characterized by its irregular shape and ability to change form, while paramecium has a more defined shape and is covered in cilia for movement. In contrast, spirogyra is a filamentous green alga, primarily photosynthetic and multicellular. Therefore, amoeba and paramecium are the most similar, as they share characteristics of being unicellular and heterotrophic, whereas spirogyra is distinct in being multicellular and autotrophic.

autotrophic
An amoeba and a Volvox are two examples of protists. The amoeba is heterotrophic (does not make its own food), and the Volvox is autotrophic (makes its own food through photosynthesis).
some are autotrophic, some are heterotrophic some are autotrophic, some are heterotrophic some are autotrophic, some are heterotrophic some are autotrophic, some are heterotrophic
No, amoebas are unable to photosynthesize. They are heterotrophic organisms that obtain their energy by consuming other organisms or organic matter. Photosynthesis is a process carried out by autotrophic organisms like plants and algae to produce energy from sunlight.
It is a carnivorous autotrophic.
it is autotrophic nutrition
