What is an organism that is able to make its own food?

Answer 1

autotroph

Answer 2

Organisms that can produce their own food are known as autotrophs. There are two main categories of autotrophs, they are: phototrophs (derive their energy from sunlight) and chemotrophs (derive their energy from the oxidation of a chemical fuel). An example of photoautotroph is a pine tree, an example of a chemotroph is a Methanobacteria.

Answer 3

An Autotroph

Photosynthetic organisms (plants, algae, cyanobacteria) are capable of making glucose from oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water (all inorganic chemicals) using energy harvested from light.

Also, some bacteria in light-deprived environments use inorganic sulfide chemicals and heat to create chemicals to carry out respiration

Other organisms must consume these organisms to obtain glucose or compounds to derive glucose from (proteins, fats, starches, complex sugars).

Answer 4

An organism that can make its own food can be called a producer or an autotroph. An example would be a plant because they use the sun to make their own food through photosynthesis.

Answer 5

An organism that is able to make its own food is called an autotroph. Autotrophs, such as plants and some bacteria, are able to produce their own energy through processes like photosynthesis.

Answer 6

autotrophic nutrition
