First of all, Autographs and heterotrophs are not even closely related.
Heterotrophs obtain energy by consuming organic matter of other organisms, either living or deceased. Autotrophs obtain energy by capturing it from sunlight (photosynthesis) or capturing chemical energy (chemosynthesis).

What is the name of the process that heterotropsh gets energy from?
Heterotrophs get energy by eating plants. The process is called food chain.
How nearly all energy for life comes directly or indirectly from the Sun given that heterotrophs get their energy from the food they eat.?
Ask yourself where the "food" gets its energy.
The source of energy for most autotrophs is A water or B the sun or C heterotrophs or D other autotrophs?
the sun because well it gives them energy
Are bacteria autotrophs or heterotrophs?
Both types of bacteria exist. Some are autotrophic while others are heterotrophic. Most autotrophic bacteria can synthesize their food from substances like hydrogen sulphide. This process is called chemosynthesis and involves the use of chemical substances for the production of energy. Heterotrophic bacteria, in contrast, cannot synthesize their own energy and must consume organic matter for energy. These include decomposing bacteria, or other groups of bacteria that may be symbiotic of parasitic in nature.
Compare the of organisms that respire to those that photosynthesize?
All organisms use respiration to get energy ( 6H2O+6CO2=C6H12O6+6O2)
How do autotrophs and heterotrophs differ in way they obtain energy?
Heterotrophs obtain energy from foods they consume, and Autotrophs obtain energy by the sun light
How do heterotrophs and autotrophs differ in the way they obtain energy?
Heterotrophs obtain energy from foods they consume, and Autotrophs obtain energy by the sun light
What is the heterotroph obtaining from the autotroph?
The heterotrophs obtain food energy and other nutrients from autotrophs.
What are ways obtaining energy?
Eating and drinking, for heterotrophs and photosynthesis and other autotrophic behavior for autotrophs.
Where does cellular respiration occur in heterotrophs and and photosynthesis in autotrophs?
heterotrophs eat other organisms because they can not make their own food. so they obtain their energy by braking down their food to a simpler state through the process of respiration so yes heterotrophs preform respiration
How does a heterotorph differ from an autotroph?
They differ in one fundamental way:Autotrophs fix their own energy. (They are the producers of the ecosystem.)Heterotrophs must get their energy from other sources. (They are the consumers, detritivores, or decomposers of the ecosystem.)
How do plant cells differ from animal cells when obtaining energy?
Plants create their own energy via photosynthesis. Animals eat to get energy
What are heterotrophs and where do they get their energy?
Heterotrophs are organisms that consume food in order to obtain energy. These organisms get their energy by consuming organic molecules.
How do autotrophs obtain energy and how do heterotrophs obtain energy?
Heterotrophs obtain energy from foods they consume, and Autotrophs obtain energy by the sun light
What is the term for any organism that obtains its energy by eating other organims?
kufluy
Is a cow primary consumer or heterotroph or herbivore?
Yes. Heterotrophs are organisms which must take in organic substrates in order to survive. This means they are consumers that take the energy from other organisms, plants or animals because it is incapable of obtaining its energy any other way, such as through photosynthesis and cellular respiration in plants. Cows, being such consumers, then need to get their energy by consuming plants, making them heterotrophs.
What food molecule is used by heterotrophs to make energy?
Heterotrophs are unable to make their food, but consume reduced carbon compounds. The heterotrophs are then able to obtain energy from the food for reproduction and growth.
