Neither. A virus is not really alive in a traditional sense.
A hetrotroph is an animal that finds it food, like a human or a cheetah. Instead of making our food (autotroph) we have to search for it.
heterotrphy
Easy. it is a heterotroph. an autotroph is a plant or anything that makes it own food. a hetrotroph is consumes its food.
It depends on the organism. The amoeba is a microscopic heterotroph while microscopic algae and blue-green bacteria are autotrophs.
While some autotrophs are categorized by some scientists as protozoans e.g., Euglena, most consider protozoans to be those single-celled organisms that are heterotrophic.
Is a groundhog a autotroph
Autotrophs produce their own food, heterotrophs can't make their own food. Herbivores eat plants, carnivores eat meat, omnivores eat both plants and meat. Grasshopper:heterotroph, herbivore
yes
A zebra is not an autotroph. Autotrophs make their own food. Zebras a considered a heterotroph because it eats other organisms for food.
A potato is an autotroph.
Autotroph
Autotrophs make their own food using chlorophyll, (sunlight energy) whereas; hetrotrophs don't. Hetrotrophs feed off other living things. e.g. -a plant absorbs sunlight to grow, release and store (so the plant is an autotroph) -a cow then eats the plant and the energy is transferred (so the cow is a hetrotroph) - a human then eats the cow and the energy is, once again, transferred (so the human is a hetrotroph) - the energy is then lost as heat
