Other organisms can obtain their energy through various sources such as sunlight (photosynthesis in plants), consuming other organisms (heterotrophs), or through chemical reactions (chemosynthesis in certain bacteria). Each organism has a specific way of obtaining and using energy to survive and carry out its life processes.
No, heterotroph and consumer are not exactly the same. Heterotrophs are organisms that obtain energy by consuming other organisms or organic substances. Consumers are a type of heterotroph that specifically refers to organisms that feed on other organisms for energy.
Consumers secure energy from their surroundings. Consumers are organisms that obtain energy by consuming other living organisms, such as plants or other animals. Decomposers, on the other hand, break down dead organisms and organic matter to obtain energy.
Organisms that obtain energy from other organisms are called heterotrophs. They cannot produce their own food and rely on consuming plants, animals, or other organic matter for energy. Examples of heterotrophs include animals, fungi, and many bacteria. In contrast, organisms that produce their own energy through processes like photosynthesis are called autotrophs.
Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot make its own food and gets energy by eating other organisms.

Organisms that eat other organisms for energy are hetreotrophs.
Parasites
Organisms that can consume other organisms for energy are known as heterotrophs. This includes animals, fungi, and some types of bacteria. Heterotrophs rely on consuming organic matter to obtain the energy they need for survival.
Animals.
Phytoplankton are photosynthetic organisms. They get their energy from sunlight.
consumers
A food chain.The steps by which energy flows among groups of organisms is called an energy pyramid. The energy pyramid shows what organisms get energy from other organisms and how much they get.
consumers get energy by eating other organisms

they produce the source of chemical energy for themselves and for other organisms. -Biology
