Question
Chapter 24.1, Problem 2CYP
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
Autotrophs are producers and heterotrophs are consumers.
Introduction:
Organisms are divided into two broad categories based upon their nutrients and energy: autotrophs and heterotrophy. Autotrophsareproduces their own food from the help of sun light or chemical energy. Heterotrophs do not produce their own food, they depend on autotrophs. In the autotrophs involve plants which are the primary producer and in heteroptrophs involve animals which are characterized as consumer.

Students have asked these similar questions
Plants are classified as
because they use
for their carbon source.
O A) autotrophs; CO2
B) autotrophs; glucose
C) heterotrophs; CO2
D) phototrophs; CO2
E) heterotrophs; glucose
Identify the ways that autotrophs and heterotrophs obtainnutrients.
Autotrophs are unable to make their own food so they depend on other organisms for their source of food. Heterotrophs are producers.
a. Both statements are true
b. The first statement is true
c. Both statements are false.
d. The second statement is true.
