Difference between autotrophs and hetrotrophs?

1} autotrophs --- green plants are able to prepare their own food from simple raw materials ---- carbon dioxide from the air , and water from the soil. plants get the enegy for preparing food from sunlight. this mode of nutrition where green plants make food themselves from simple substances is called autotrophic nutrition. such plants are therefore called autotrophs. 2} hetrotrophs --- animals and non - green plants, such as fungi and bacteria, cannot prepare their own food. they depend directly or indirectly on green plants for their nutrition. this mode of nutrition is called hetrotrophic nutrition. animals and non - green plants are known as hetrotrophs.

Why are the animals and humans called hetrotrophs?

Animals and humans are called heterotrophs because they cannot produce their own food and instead rely on consuming other organisms for energy and nutrients. Heterotrophs obtain organic compounds by eating plants, animals, or decomposed matter. This distinguishes them from autotrophs, like plants, which can synthesize their own food through photosynthesis. Essentially, heterotrophs play a vital role in the ecosystem by participating in food chains and energy transfer.


Tell you about hetrotrophs?

Heterotrophs is an organisms that obtain energy from foods that they eat. For example, a lion, zebra or other animal are Heterotrophs because they get energy from another livings things. Like flowers, or any plants that animals eat transfer plants energy to their energy. I learned in Biology class.

How animals depend on plants?

Animals depend on plants for food and the reason for this is so animals can get the energy they store from the sun into their own bodies. They also depend on plants because plant's are autotrophs ( make their own food) by using and storing the sun's energy, so because us animals are hetrotrophs ( can't make our own food :S) we depend on the energy the plants have stored from the sun light.
