Yes, autotrophs produce waste as a byproduct of their metabolic processes. During photosynthesis, for example, they convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, with oxygen being a waste product. Additionally, autotrophs may excrete other metabolic wastes, such as excess minerals or organic compounds, depending on their specific processes and environmental conditions.
The internal energy reserve in autotrophs is usually in the form of starch or sugar molecules stored in their cells. Autotrophs produce their own energy through photosynthesis and use this reserve to sustain themselves during times when they are not able to produce energy through sunlight.
Autotrophs are called the producers in an ecosystem because they are the first layer of energy. This is because they produce their own food using photosynthesis.
No, grasses produce their own food. They are autotrophs.
No, Autotrophs are producers that make their own food for example plants using light for photosynthesis. Heterotrophs eat the autotrophs, so really autotrophs support the heterotrophs in the cycle.
Walruses are heterotrophs, which means they rely on consuming organic matter for their energy and nutrients. They do not have the ability to produce their own food through photosynthesis like autotrophs.

Some autotrophs/producers are: Wheat Fungi Algae Cacti Trees Shrubs They are made autotrophs because they can produce their own food.
Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food using sunlight or inorganic compounds. While plants are a common example of autotrophs, not all autotrophs are plants. Some autotrophs, such as certain types of bacteria, can produce their own food without the need to consume other organisms.
Autotroph-Autotrophs
We call these autotrophs.
Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food using energy from sunlight (photosynthesis) or inorganic chemicals (chemosynthesis). They are able to convert these energy sources into organic compounds that can be used as nutrients for growth and development. This ability allows autotrophs to sustain themselves without needing to consume other organisms for food.
Autotrophs produce food by photosyntesis. Photosyntesis is when a plant uses water and the suns energy to produce sugar and energy. This is how they survive, other organisms- heterotroughs eat the autotrophs to gain energy which the autotroughs produce.
