What is the scientific word that you use to name organisms that do photosynthesis?

There are various words to use: Phototrophs - photosynthetic organisms that use sunlight to make food. Autotrophs - organisms (including phototrophs) that make their own food and don't have to chase it down or catch it like animals (heterotrophs) do. Producers - the energy producers (capturers) in a food chain. Plants are the producers of terrestrial food chains. They are autotrophs in that they can make their own food. They are phototrophs in that they use light to carry out the reactions to make that food (photosynthesis).
