Humans are heterotrophs.!!!
It means all living organisms must eat ORGANIC matterm in order to survive.
We do NOT eat INORGANIC matter ( rocks).
NB Just because the advertising 'boys' play on the word 'organic', they are just playing to your suseptability for naturally grown organic matter.
What else can I help you with?
What are herterotrophic?
Is an herterotroph and a primary producer
Is an elephant a autotroph or hetertroph?
An elephant is a heterotroph, meaning it eats plants and other animals to obtain food. Autotrophs are organisms like plants that are able to produce their own food.
What is the difference between an autotroph and a herterotroph?
Autotrophs are organisms that produce their own food using inorganic substances, typically through processes like photosynthesis or chemosynthesis, allowing them to convert sunlight or chemical energy into organic compounds. In contrast, heterotrophs cannot synthesize their own food and rely on consuming other organisms, either plants or animals, for energy and nutrients. Essentially, autotrophs are primary producers, while heterotrophs are consumers in the food chain.
Another name for a heterotroph is?
Another word is "consumer." All animals are, by definition, heterotrophs; they cannot synthesize their own food and so must eat other organisms for the organic compounds necessary for survival. However most fungi, and many bacteria and protozoa are also heterotrophic.
