Autotrophs produce their own foodenergy from solar or chemical energy
Plants and Algae are autotrophs that use photosynthesis. They convert solar energy into chemical energy stored in the chemicalbonds of glucose. They convert to ATP.
Autotrophic Organisms take in inorganic materials like CO2 and H2O and convert them into organicnutrients (Glucose). Known as photosynthesis.
Autotrophic organisms are plants, algae, and somebacteria.
Heterotrophic organisms must take in nutrients made by other organisms.
Heterotrophs are animals, fungi, and some bacteria.
Carnivores: animals that eatanimals
Herbivores: animals that eatplants
Omnivores: animals that eatbothplants and animals
Decomposers: fungi or bacteria that eatdeadmaterials
