Question
Chapter 10.1, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To discuss: The reason behind the dependence of heterotrophs on autotrophs.
Introduction: Organisms are classified based on their mode of nutrition. Autotrophs are those who produce food on their own through the process of photosynthesis. Heterotrophs are the living being on the earth except for producers. They rely on producers for food as they can’t make food on their own.
