it is heterotrophic nutrition
heterotroph
It is a heterotroph since it can be found in the root of legume plants, and obtaining fixed carbon source (e.g.glucose) from the plant
Answer The words "autotrophic" and "heterotrophic" are biological terms describing how an organism metabolyses carbon. Broadly speaking, an autotrophic organism is something like a green plant which metabolyses carbon by photosynthesis and a heterotrophic organism obtains carbon usually by eating an autotrophic organism. As a human, a British soldier would be heterotrophic.
Autotrophic nutrition requires Carbon dioxide (as in most cases). Some autotrophs don't require Carbon dioxide...
Heterotrophic means obtaining ready made organic food from the environment and Autotrophic means manufacturing food from inorganic compounds usually carbon dioxide, water using a source of energy Autotrophic nutrition is a process where plants make food by combining large complex organic molecules such as starch, lipids and protein with simple inorganic molecules like water, carbon dioxide and minerals. Example: plants Hetrotrophic nutrition is where organism feed on organic substances that have been made by other organisms. Examples are animals and fungi
Autotroph. Autotrophs make their own food using photosynthesis, which needs chlorophyll

Calvin cycle is mostly used for the CO2 fixation by the aototrophic bacteria as carbon source.
Algae are autotrophic organisms, meaning they can produce their own food through photosynthesis. They use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to make their own energy source, usually in the form of carbohydrates.
Methanogens can be both autotrophic and heterotrophic depending on what species you are asking about and what energy substrates are available. Many species are capable of using H2 and CO2 as sole energy sources, making them autotrophic. Others are capable of using other carbon sources like acetate and methanol, making them heterotrophic.
No, autotrophic bacteria are not the majority of bacteria. The majority of bacteria are actually heterotrophic, meaning they obtain their carbon and energy from organic molecules produced by other organisms. Autotrophic bacteria, on the other hand, are capable of producing their own organic molecules using sunlight or inorganic compounds as a source of energy.
