Where does cellular respiration occur in heterotrophs and and photosynthesis in autotrophs?

heterotrophs eat other organisms because they can not make their own food. so they obtain their energy by braking down their food to a simpler state through the process of respiration so yes heterotrophs preform respiration

What do autotrophs and heterotrophs have in common?

The similarities between autotrophs and heterotrophs are they are both living things. The essentials for their life is air, sunlight and water. They both also need food to live.


Explain why both autotrophs and heterotrophs depend on photosynthesis to obtain the energy they need for the life process?

Actually Autotrophs depend on the photosynthesis for the energy need. Autotrophs have the potential to convertsolar energy into chemical energy by utilizing other raw materials in the process. Heterotrophs are dependent on autotrophs for their energy needs, since the product generated by the autotrophs is the substrate for them because they cannot synthesis organic molecules from inorganic materials. So, life is dependent on photosyntheis.


What is the difference between autotrophs and heterotrophs in terms of whether the cells perform photosynthesis and or cellular respiration?

Autotrophs perform both respiration and photosynthesis. Heterotrophs perform only respiration


Is eukarya autotrophic or heterotrophic?

Eukarya refers to all organisms whose cells have a nucleus. This means that they include fungi (which are heterotrophs), animals (which are heterotrophs), plants (which are autotrophs), and protists (some of which are heterotrophs, some autotrophs).


How are heterotrophs and autotrophs alike?

They both require energy and give off water as a byproduct

Can heterotrophs produce their own energy?

Heterotrophs cannot produce their own food, if that is what you mean by energy. For example, humans are heterotrophs. Autotrophs, however, can produce their own food (like plants, algae, etc). Both heterotrophs and autotrophs need energy to survive, they just use it in different ways.
