Carnivorous plants are one example, but there may be others…
Heterotrophic- it feeds off the food that is ingested by the organism.

protista can actulally be either. Some can be autotrophic and some can be hetrotrophic.Protista can be autotrophic or heterotrophic. An autotroph is an organism that makes its own food. A heterotroph is an organism that relies on other resources for food, just in case you didn't know. :]
they are both
Answer The words "autotrophic" and "heterotrophic" are biological terms describing how an organism metabolyses carbon. Broadly speaking, an autotrophic organism is something like a green plant which metabolyses carbon by photosynthesis and a heterotrophic organism obtains carbon usually by eating an autotrophic organism. As a human, a British soldier would be heterotrophic.
heterotrophs
Proteobacteria are typically heterotrophic, meaning they obtain their energy by consuming organic compounds. However, some proteobacteria are also capable of being mixotrophic, meaning they can switch between autotrophic and heterotrophic modes of nutrition.
They are both depending on what species it is...
some are autotrophic, some are heterotrophic some are autotrophic, some are heterotrophic some are autotrophic, some are heterotrophic some are autotrophic, some are heterotrophic
The Venus flytrap is both heterotrophic and autotrophic.
Heterotrophic.
An auto-heterotrophic organism is an organism that can switch between being autotrophic (producing its own food through photosynthesis) and heterotrophic (obtaining food from external sources) depending on environmental conditions. This flexibility allows the organism to survive in varied or challenging conditions.
