Animals eat plants or other animals, depending on their species.
The mode of nutrition refers to how an organism obtains its food. There are three main modes of nutrition: autotrophic organisms make their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis, heterotrophic organisms obtain food by consuming other organisms, and saprotrophic organisms obtain nutrients by decomposing organic matter.
Photosynthesis
the chlorophyll
Plants manufacture their own food by photosynthesizing light with their chloroplasts and chlorophyll. Since animals acquire nutrition in a different way, by eating their food, they have no need for chloroplasts and chlorophyll.
Consumers are heterotrophs because, unlike autotrophs, they do not make their own food. Instead, the Consume other animals to obtain nutrition.
Zooflagellates obtain nutrition just like animals do. They are heterotrophic meaning they have to consume organic substrates for sustenance. Word origin: Greek, heterone = (an)other + trophe = nutrition.
By eating other animals or scavenging through people's trash
phagocytosis is the process of aquiring nutrition in unicellular organisms
mode of the nutrition of mucor
Animals are heterotrophic organisms, meaning they obtain nutrition by consuming organic matter from other living organisms. They are unable to produce their own food through photosynthesis like plants do.

They grow on another plant so that they can obtain the nutrition from that plant. They are known as parasitic plants.
saprotophic nutrition is the nutrition of organisms which feed on dead animals
from host plant
Yes, animals in the kingdom Animalia are heterotrophic, meaning they cannot produce their own food and must obtain nutrition by consuming other organisms.
