What are three types of heterotrophs?

Three types of heterotrophes are: humans, alligators and fish. Plants are autotrophes which means they produce their own food within their body. If you compare the three heterotrophs I listed above, then they all consume (or eat) different types of food and capture them in different ways.


Plant cells make their own food but animals take in their food by?

consuming other organisms or plant matter. Plants use photosynthesis to convert sunlight into energy, while animals rely on consuming other organisms for nutrients. This difference accounts for the diverse ways in which plants and animals obtain their food.


Name two ways protists get food?

1) producers- get food by photosynthesis 2) heterotrophs- gets food by eating other organism or byproducts 3) parasite- an organism that its off another species (the host) 4) host- another organism from which the parasite takes food and shelter


What are 3 ways that protist get energy?

Protists can obtain energy through photosynthesis, like algae and some protists with chloroplasts. They can also feed on organic matter as heterotrophs, breaking down complex molecules into nutrients. Some protists engage in symbiotic relationships with other organisms to obtain energy, such as mutualistic relationships with algae or bacteria.


What are the three ways organisms obtain food?

Organisms obtain food through autotrophic processes like photosynthesis, where they produce their own food using sunlight and nutrients, heterotrophic processes where they consume other organisms for food, and saprotrophic processes where they feed on decaying organic matter.

Describe three ways that protist differ from each other?

Protists are the miscellaneous group out of the six kingdom, so as long as they are eukaryotic they are protist. They can be heterotrophs or autotrophs, they can be multicellular or single-celled


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.
