Autotrophic organisms are those that are capable of creating their own energy from non-biological sources. Without these producers, heterotrophs would cease to exist because they would have no primary source of nutrition.


Could someone explain the statement without autotrophic organisms heterotrophic life would cease to exist?

sure. where would heterotrophic life get its energy? someone somewhere somehow has to produce it or in this case bind the energy into a usable form which we all eat. if nothing did that then what will we eat??? which,BTW, is why the matrix makes no sense cos energy has to come from somewhere!
