What else can I help you with?
Are most plants consumers?
Most plants are autotrophs, meaning they create their own food source.
The source of energy for most autotrophs is A water or B the sun or C heterotrophs or D other autotrophs?
the sun because well it gives them energy
Are sunflowers autotrophs?
Autotrophs simply 'self feed'. Sunflowers are photo-autotrophs. Like all plants, they need the sun as an energy source, to grow and process their food (starches etc).
The main difference between chemo synthetic autotrophs and photosynthetic autotrophs is that only?
Chemolithoautotrophs use inorganic compounds as an energy source in chemosynthesis, while photoautotrophs use sunlight as an energy source in photosynthesis. This difference in energy source influences the way these organisms produce organic molecules for growth and development.
Autotrophs that utilize light as their energy source are?
Autotrophs that utilize light as their energy source are called phototrophs. These organisms are able to perform photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy for their survival and growth. Examples include plants, algae, and some bacteria.
What is the ultimate source of energy autotrophs use to produce their own food?
It depends. Most of the autotrophs you have seen are green plants and they ultimately get their energy from the sun through photosynthesis. In the oceans, around volcanic vents, entire ecosystems get their energy from organisms that absorb the dissolved chemicals for energy. These are chemoautotrophs or 'chemotrophs' for short.
What do autotrophs make that heterotrophs need?
Autotrophs don't necessarily "make" anything that heterotrophs need. The word autotroph means that the organism produces its own source of food. Heterotrophs depend on autotrophs as an essential source of food and nutrients (nitrogen, etc.).
What are the animals and fungi that depend on autotrophs for their food energy?
Animals like herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores rely on autotrophs for their food energy. Fungi, such as decomposers like mushrooms, also depend on autotrophs as a food source by breaking down organic matter produced by autotrophs.
What is the source of the energy in an energy pyramid?
The sun. Which is absorbed by autotrophs and They are in turn eaten by heterotrophs
What is the source of all energy in an energy pyramid?
The sun. Which is absorbed by autotrophs and They are in turn eaten by heterotrophs
What are atotrophs?
Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food using inorganic compounds and an external energy source, typically from sunlight or chemicals. They are able to perform photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to create organic molecules that serve as their source of energy and nutrients. Examples of autotrophs include plants, algae, and some bacteria.
Where do most of the autotrophs get their energy from?
Inorganic matter (apex)
