Yes, Idomoeba butschlii is heterotrophic. This single-celled organism obtains its nutrients by consuming organic matter, primarily through phagocytosis, where it engulfs food particles. As a protist, it plays a role in the ecosystem by feeding on bacteria and other small microorganisms.
No, amoebas are unable to photosynthesize. They are heterotrophic organisms that obtain their energy by consuming other organisms or organic matter. Photosynthesis is a process carried out by autotrophic organisms like plants and algae to produce energy from sunlight.
Protists obtain energy through photosynthesis, where they use sunlight to make food; heterotrophy, where they consume other organisms for food; and mixotrophy, where they combine both autotrophic and heterotrophic modes of nutrition.
Basically all of them, yeah.
Fungus are Heterotrphic the do not Photosynthesize.
