sunlight is considered to be a form of energy. the classification of organic / inorganic is generally not applicable for energy.
The scientific term for an organism that makes its food from inorganic materials is autotroph. Autotrophs use energy from sunlight or inorganic compounds to produce organic molecules through a process called photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
Organisms that can exist on light and an inorganic form of carbon and other raw materials are called autotrophs. They can synthesize their own organic compounds from inorganic substances using energy from sunlight (photosynthesis) or inorganic chemical reactions (chemosynthesis). Examples include plants, algae, and certain bacteria.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the inorganic molecule required by green plants for the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is converted into glucose in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
An organism that is able to use a source of energy to produce food from simple inorganic molecules is called a autotroph. Autotrophs can convert sunlight (in the case of plants) or inorganic chemicals (in the case of certain bacteria) into energy through the process of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis, respectively.
Autotrophic organisms, such as plants, algae, and some bacteria, are able to synthesize organic molecules from inorganic raw materials through processes like photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. These organisms can convert energy from sunlight or inorganic substances into organic molecules that serve as food for themselves and other organisms.
Sunlight is source or form of energy. Energy is generally not considered as organic or inorganic.

An autotroph is an organism that only needs inorganic nutrients and sunlight to survive. (eg. plants)
Chemoautotrophic bacteria utilize inorganic substances, such as hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, or iron, instead of sunlight for the process of chemosynthesis to produce carbohydrates. Examples include sulfur-oxidizing bacteria and nitrifying bacteria.
The scientific term for an organism that makes its food from inorganic materials is autotroph. Autotrophs use energy from sunlight or inorganic compounds to produce organic molecules through a process called photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.
Sunlight doesn't contain minerals. Sunlight is composed of electromagnetic radiation in the form of visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light. Minerals are solid, naturally occurring inorganic substances found in the earth's crust.
No, chemoautotrophs do not need sunlight to survive. They use inorganic compounds as a source of energy to produce their own food through chemosynthesis. These organisms can typically be found in environments such as deep-sea vents where sunlight does not penetrate.
Carbon dioxide and water are the two inorganic materials needed by the plant to carry out photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide is absorbed from the atmosphere through tiny pores on the leaves called stomata, while water is absorbed from the soil through the plant's roots.
Organism that can capture energy from sunlight or chemicals and use it to produce their own food from inorganic compounds. They are also called producers.
