What the importance of saprophytic nutrition to the environment in biology?
It is important for the breakdown of materials
What Is a mixotroph?
Mixotrophic nutrition is a type of dual nutrition where in light the organisms performs photosynthesis while in dark it switches over to saprophytic nutrition. Example of mixotrophic nutrition is Euglena.
What is the difference between saprophytic and parasitic bacteria?
Saprophytic is another way to say decomposers. Parasitic bacteria parasitize other organisms while they feed off of their insides. Saprophytic (decomposers) bacteria feed off of dead organisms and this is extremely important for the cycle of soil nutrients and also for many plant roots.
What are facultative pathogens?
A facultative parasite is a parasitic organism who does not absolutely rely on any host for completion of its life cycle. At times it may resort to saprophytic mode of nutrition.
Are archaebacteria or heterotrophic or autotrophic or saprophytic?
If you mean are Archaebacteria Heterotrophic, Autotrophic, or Saprophytic, they can be either heterotrophic or autotrophic
Decomposer fungi are examples of a?
saprophytic nutrition
What is the diff. between saprophytic and saprozoic nutrition?
Saprophytic nutrition involves obtaining nutrients from dead organic matter, while saprozoic nutrition involves ingesting whole food particles and digesting them internally. Saprophytic organisms secrete enzymes to break down organic matter externally, while saprozoic organisms ingest food through phagocytosis or filter feeding.
How do non green plants survive?
By saprophytic or parasitic mode of nutrition

Is fugus able to make their on food?
No, fungus do not make their own food. Their modes of nutrition are saprophytic and symbiosis
What does Saprophytic mean?
It is a plant that depends on dead plant or animal tissue for a source of nutrition and metabolic energy.

How do protist get nutrition?
a. protozoa - Consumers b. slime molds - Saprophytic c. algae - Photosynthetic d. water molds - Parasitic
What is the mode of nutrition in saprophytes?
saprophytic nutrition which is external.Majorly decaying matter of dead organisms is feed on.
What is the mode of nutrition for a earthworm?
Earthworms are mostly saprophytic in nature. They eat soil which inturn provides them with the dead decaying organic matter inside the soil.
