Anything that captures its own energy from external non-living sources, such as the sun, deep-sea thermal vents, etc.
Auto=self, hetero=other. Hence "self-feeding" versus "feeding on others"
Autotrophic organisms are any organisms capable of self-nourishment by using inorganic materials as a source of energy.
An autotroph is able to make its own food by using light or chemical energy. Examples of autotrophic organisms include green plants, algae and certain bacteria.
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.
It is any organism that can make its own food by light energy or chemical energy
All the autotrophic organisms (organism which has ability to manufacture its own food) have chlorophyll.
Physarum polycephalum belongs to the supergroup Amoebozoa which are Heterotrophic organisms.

an autotrophic organism, such as a plant or bacteria
Autotrophic
The process of obtaining energy from the source
It is any organism that can make its own food by light energy or chemical energy
An organism that makes it's own food.
All the autotrophic organisms (organism which has ability to manufacture its own food) have chlorophyll.
An autotrophic organism is a plant capable of synthesizing its own food. An example is Euglenophyta.
the bronze deer
Heterotrophic- it feeds off the food that is ingested by the organism.
Carnivorous plants are one example, but there may be others…
Autotrophic is when the animal or organism makes it's own food, Hetrophic is an animal that needs to hunt, find, or look for its own food.
