What else can I help you with?
What is heterophic?
Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot make their own food. They have to depend on other plants and animals for nutrition.
What is the difference between autotrophy and heterotrophy?
Autotrophy is the ability of an organism to produce its own food using inorganic compounds, such as plants that photosynthesize. Heterotrophy is when an organism cannot produce its own food and must obtain nutrients by consuming other organisms, like animals that consume plants or other animals.
What organism can't make their own food?
Consumers are organisms that cannot make their own food.
Living organism who rely on dead plants and animals for food?
saprobes
Animals that cannot make their own food and must eat other animals or plants to get energy are called what food relationships show where organisms get their food each member on the chain feed?
Animals that cannot make their own food and must eat other animals or plants to obtain energy are known as heterotrophs. These organisms are a part of food chains, where each member feeds on the organism below it in the chain to acquire energy.
Organism that can not create its own food?
A heterotroph is an organism that cannot produce its own food. Humans, as well as all other animals are consumers, because they have to eat other animals or plants for energy. Fungi and bacteria are also heterotroph, because they feed on decomposing matter (they use this matter as food to produce energy).
How are plants and animals alike but different from a fungus?
Animals and plants are very different than fungus. Animals cannot produce their own food. Plants can produce their own food.
What kind of organism considered as the producers?
Plants make food where animals eat it
In a food chain why are plants called producers and animals called consumers?
Plants (or at least most plants; there are some exceptions) do not eat any other organism; they create their own food out of water, air, minerals and sunlight. Whereas, all animals have to eat some other organism to survive. Some eat plants and some eat other animals, but every animal eats some kind of organism. So plants produce the food upon which all animals ultimately depend (because even if an animal eats other animals, the animals that it eats depend upon plants).
Is solar energy important to carnivores?
yes.....solar energy is important to them because it helps in photosynthesis i.e.it helps in preparing of food for plants as well as animals. ANY ORGANISM IN THIS WORLD CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT FOOD and ANIMALS ARE INCLUDING HUMAN DEPENDS ON PLANTS DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY.SO IT IS ESSENTIAL.
Why animals cannot prepare their own food?
They dont have chloroplasts. Plants have them.
What are present only in animals?
Systems for obtaining food (that is not produced internally by the organism as happens in plants).
