bacteria cannot make its own food because scientists think they arent alive
Because they cannot photosynthesise.
Organisms that cannot make their own food are called heterotrophs.Most categories of organisms, excepting green plants and some bacteria, are heterotrophs.
Autotrophs, just like flowers and grass, bacteria make their own food too! Bacteria are sometimes also heterotrophs as well. That means the oposite of aoutotrophs, they don't make their own food. Hope i helped :)

=== === There are some bacteria that can make their own food like an autotroph can.
Yes,they cannot make their own food
Organisms that cannot make their own food are called consumers.
Some bacteria are heterotrophs and cannot make their own food. Instead, Heterotrophic bacteria must consume other organisms or the food that other organisms make. Heterotrophic bacteria may consume a variety of foods--from milk and meat, which you might also eat, to the decaying leaves on a forest floor
Yes and no. Some bacteria are autotrophs (make their own food with their environment around them and the sun's energy) and some are heterotrophs (can't make their own food so they eat autotrophs and other heterotrophs).
