Coralline algae obtain energy through photosynthesis, where they use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. They contain pigments like chlorophyll that enable them to capture sunlight for energy production.
Plants are an example of heterotrophic phototrophs. They obtain energy from sunlight through photosynthesis but must also consume organic matter to obtain nutrients for growth and survival.
Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot produce their own food and must obtain their energy by consuming other organisms. They obtain chemical energy from the organic matter in autotrophs or other heterotrophs through processes such as ingestion and digestion. This energy is then used in their metabolic processes to fuel essential functions and activities.
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.
True. Organisms cannot create energy; they must obtain it from their environment. This energy is typically captured through processes such as photosynthesis in plants or cellular respiration in animals. These processes convert environmental energy sources into forms that organisms can use to sustain their life functions.
It must obtain biological energy to stay alive.

All cells must respire, as this is the way they obtain the energy to live.

They are called consumers.

consumers
Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot produce their own food and must consume organic matter from other organisms to obtain energy. They get their energy by breaking down complex organic molecules, such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, through processes like digestion and cellular respiration.
A heterotroph is a creature that must ingest biomass to obtain its energy and nutrition.
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. It is a consumer because it must eat plants [or other insects] to obtain energy.
