An organism that uses Photosynthesis to produce glucose is called an Autotroph. Autotrophs are also called "self feeders" because they can produce food(glucose) for their own cells, such as plants.

(A Heterotroph is an organism that consumes other organisms to get food for their cells, such as humans.)

What organisms carries photosynthesis?

Plants are the most recognized organisms that perform photosynthesis. However, certain kinds of single-celled organisms can also use photosynthesis, such as cyanobacteria.


What are the three organisms that carry out photosynthesis?

The three main organisms that carry out photosynthesis are plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. They are capable of converting light energy into chemical energy stored in glucose through the process of photosynthesis.

What kinds of materials are produced by photosynthetic organisms?

The chemical formula of photosynthesis is 6CO2+6H2O -> sunlight/chlorophil -> 6O2+6H2O+C6H12O6 Which basically means 6 carbon dioxide molecules + 6 Water molecules in the presence of sunlight and chlorophil makes 6 oxygen molecules, 6 water molecules, and a molecule of gluclose. (Gluclose is the only material that is wanted by the autotrophic organism.) Gluclose is also known as sugar.


Where do organisms that make their own food get their energy from?

By making them from inorganic things. Only the autotrophs can produce their own food. These organisms are put into two catagories: the chemoautotrophs, and the photoautotrophs. The chemoautotrophs make food (organic substances) from non-organic compounds such as chemical. These organisms are usually in dark places where light doesn't penetrate through. The photoautotrophs make food from sunlight through a process known as photosynthesis. These organisms must be in a presence of sunlight otherwise they cannot produce food.


What are 3 different kinds of producers?

Primary producers, like plants and algae, produce energy through photosynthesis. Secondary producers, such as herbivores and omnivores, consume primary producers for energy. Tertiary producers, like carnivores, consume secondary producers for energy.

What organism uses energy from the sun to make their own food?

Plants, algae, and some kinds of bacteria engage in photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is a biological process which uses energy from the sun to turn carbon dioxide and water into oxygen, sugar, and other organic compounds.
