Neither. A virus is not really alive in a traditional sense.
A hetrotroph is an animal that finds it food, like a human or a cheetah. Instead of making our food (autotroph) we have to search for it.
heterotrphy
Is a groundhog a autotroph
A pecan tree is an autotroph, meaning it produces its own food through the process of photosynthesis. It converts sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen, using chlorophyll in its leaves. This ability allows it to sustain itself and grow without relying on other organisms for nourishment.
Autotrophs produce their own food, heterotrophs can't make their own food. Herbivores eat plants, carnivores eat meat, omnivores eat both plants and meat. Grasshopper:heterotroph, herbivore
Easy. it is a heterotroph. an autotroph is a plant or anything that makes it own food. a hetrotroph is consumes its food.
yes
While some autotrophs are categorized by some scientists as protozoans e.g., Euglena, most consider protozoans to be those single-celled organisms that are heterotrophic.
A potato is an autotroph.
Autotrophs make their own food using chlorophyll, (sunlight energy) whereas; hetrotrophs don't. Hetrotrophs feed off other living things. e.g. -a plant absorbs sunlight to grow, release and store (so the plant is an autotroph) -a cow then eats the plant and the energy is transferred (so the cow is a hetrotroph) - a human then eats the cow and the energy is, once again, transferred (so the human is a hetrotroph) - the energy is then lost as heat
