I assume that by autrotroph, you mean autotroph.
Autotrophs, also known as producers, are organisms that are self-sustaining as they can undergo photosynthesis. Examples of autotrophs are plants and phytoplankton. They provide the basis of all food webs.

Is a rainbow trout an autotroph or a heterotroph?
Autrotrophs are mostly plants who can make their own food from sunlight in a process called photosynthesis. While a heterotroph creature cannot make its own food and most depend on other organisms for food, which is by eating them. I am pretty sure that a herrinbg gull is a heterotroph, since it obviously cannot get it s food from the sun. Hope this helps.

Describe how the flow of energy among the following members of an decomposers autotrophs heterotrophs and the sun?
Energy flows from the sun to autrotrophs, which are able to make their own food from sunlight. Autotrophs die and are eaten by decomposers, passing some of their energy to them, and autotrophs are also eaten by heterotrophs (herbivores), also passing some of their energy to them. Heterotrophs die and pass some of their energy to decomposers.
