yes
Foods that are produced with harmful chemicals, preservatives and pesticides are not organic.
True. Most fungi are heterotrophic, meaning they cannot produce their own food through photosynthesis like plants. Instead, they obtain nutrients by breaking down organic matter in their environment.
Non-green plants like molds and mushrooms are heterotrophic, meaning they cannot produce their own food through photosynthesis. Instead, they obtain nutrients by breaking down organic matter through the process of decomposition. They release enzymes to break down complex organic molecules into simpler compounds that they can absorb and use as nutrients for growth and energy.
Organic and GM food is not exactly opposite, but foods that are grown and sold as "100% organic" cannot intentionally contain GMOs. It is possible, though, that cross pollination of GMOs with organic crops of the same kind could happen unintentionally.
Heterotrophic bacteria rely on organic compounds produced by other organisms as a food source, as they are unable to produce their own through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. These bacteria obtain nutrients by consuming or decomposing organic matter from their environment.
yeah.
It cannot synthesise its own food and is dependent on organic substances for nutrition
Heterotoph
Microscopic organisms that cannot make their own food are known as heterotrophs. These organisms rely on consuming organic matter from their environment for energy and nutrients. Examples include certain bacteria, protozoa, and fungi. Unlike autotrophs, which synthesize their own food through processes like photosynthesis, heterotrophs play a crucial role in ecosystems by decomposing organic material and recycling nutrients.
Organic food, such as fruits, are grown without pesticides, preservatives, artificial flavors or colors, chemical fertilizers, and they cannot be GM(Genetically modified). Organic meat is raised without antibiotics, growth hormones, and must be fed an organic diet.
Heterotrophs derive their metabolic energy from consuming other organisms or organic matter as they cannot produce their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. This is in contrast to autotrophs, which can produce their own food using energy from sunlight or inorganic compounds.
No, grasses produce their own food. They are autotrophs.
