Animals eat plants or other animals, depending on their species.
Insectivorous plants, such as sundews and pitcher plants, obtain nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus from insects they capture. The availability of insects in their habitat directly impacts the nutrition and growth of insectivorous plants. Habitats with higher insect populations typically support healthier insectivorous plants compared to habitats with fewer insects.
Photosynthesis
Insectivorous plants obtain nutrients by trapping and digesting insects. They have specialized structures, such as modified leaves or pitchers, to capture their prey. They supplement their nutrient intake with photosynthesis as well.
Ascomycota, or sac fungi, primarily obtain nutrition through absorptive heterotrophy. They secrete enzymes that break down complex organic materials in their environment, allowing them to absorb the resulting simpler compounds. This group includes decomposers that recycle nutrients in ecosystems, as well as pathogens and mutualistic symbionts in various relationships with plants and animals. Their diverse modes of nutrition enable them to thrive in a wide range of habitats.
They grow on another plant so that they can obtain the nutrition from that plant. They are known as parasitic plants.

Heterotrophic nutrition in plants occurs when they rely on obtaining organic nutrients from other organisms. This can happen in parasitic plants that absorb nutrients from their host plant, or in myco-heterotrophic plants that obtain nutrients from fungi. Overall, these plants do not photosynthesize and rely on external sources for their nutrition.
Plants are autotrophs and produce, or synthesize, their own nutrition (glucose) by using the energy contained in sunlight. Photo meaning light and synthesis means putting together. In other words, plants use light to synthesize glucose. Plants use glucose just as we do for nutrition.

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.
Photosynthesis
No, they don't. Plants are producers. This means that they produce their own energy from sunlight. They do get nutrition and water from soil, however.

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.
