A heterotroph is something that eats other organisms foods and photosynthesis helps it by making the food for heterotroph's and other organisms to eat.
A paramecium is a heterotroph because it does not perform photosynthesis to make it's own sugar using energy from the sun.
Yes, salmon is a heterotroph because it relies on consuming other organisms for its energy and nutrients rather than producing its own through photosynthesis.
Yes, a toucan is a heterotroph. Like all animals, toucans cannot produce their own food through photosynthesis and must consume other organisms to obtain energy.
No, geraniums are not heterotrophs. They are autotrophic plants, meaning they can produce their own food through photosynthesis.
The opposite of a heterotroph is an autotroph. Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food through processes like photosynthesis, whereas heterotrophs rely on consuming other organisms for energy.
The viper-fish is a heterotroph.
A heterotroph. Autotrophs make their own food using photosynthesis or chemosynthesis as a source of energy,
No, it's heterotroph (eats others). Does not do photosynthesis.
A heterotroph needs an external source of carbon.
Autotrophs produce their own food (eg. plants using photosynthesis to make glucose). Heterotrophs consume organic matter to feed themselves. Therefore, squirrels (as well as all other animals) are heterotrophs.
An organism that is both autotroph and heterotroph is called a mixotroph. Mixotrophs have the ability to obtain energy through both photosynthesis (as an autotroph) and by consuming organic matter (as a heterotroph).
A paramecium is a heterotroph because it does not perform photosynthesis to make it's own sugar using energy from the sun.
Yes, salmon is a heterotroph because it relies on consuming other organisms for its energy and nutrients rather than producing its own through photosynthesis.
autotrophic- meaning they produce there own food through photosynthesis
Yes, Mouse is a heterotroph as it takes the help of other animals to get food. By:kEnZiE
Vibrio cholerae is a heterotrophic bacterium, meaning it obtains its energy and carbon from organic compounds in its environment rather than through photosynthesis.
If you mean heterotroph, than it is any organism that cannot produce its own food,(like plants with photosynthesis). A good example of a heterotroph is a human or a lion, if you prefer.
