Is Photosynthetic but also requires organic compounds for nutrition?

This sounds like a mixotrophic organism. Mixotrophic organisms are capable of performing both photosynthesis and obtaining nutrients from organic compounds. Examples of mixotrophic organisms include certain algae and protists.


What does NOT use an inorganic source of carbon as its sole source?

Animals do not use an inorganic source of carbon as their sole source. They obtain carbon from organic sources such as plants and other animals.


What is a prokaryote that can caputure sunlight for energy but also needs organic compounds for nutrition?

The prokaryote that can capture sunlight for energy but also needs organic compounds for nutrition is a photoheterotroph. They exist in many types of aquatic environments.


What are photoheterophs?

Photoheterotrophs are organisms that can use light energy for growth but cannot convert carbon dioxide into organic compounds. Instead, they rely on organic compounds from their environment as a carbon source. An example of a photoheterotroph is the purple non-sulfur bacteria.


What bacteriochlorophylls and uses alcohols for carbon?

Answer: A Photoheterotroph Feedback: *Energy source: -Phototroph: uses light -Chemotroph: uses redox reactions from an organic or inorganic compound *Carbon source: -Autotroph: uses CO2 -Heterotroph: uses an organic source of carbon


Which organism is not correctly matched to its energy source a. photoheterotroph-light b. photoautotroph- CO2 c. chemoautotroph- fe2 plus d. chemoheterotroph-glucose e.chemoautotroph-nh3?

e. chemoautotroph-nh3. Chemoautotrophs use inorganic chemicals such as H2S or NH3 as an energy source, not NH3.
