Yes, mistletoe is considered a heterotroph because it relies on other plants for its nutrients. As a hemiparasitic plant, mistletoe attaches to host trees and derives water and nutrients from them while also photosynthesizing to produce some of its own energy. This dual mode of nutrition characterizes it as a heterotroph, as it depends on other organisms for part of its sustenance.
