Chapter 5, Problem 2MCQ
Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The mode of nutrition determines the way by which an organism acquires its nutrition from the environment. There are two major modes of nutrition, namely, autotrophic and heterotrophic. The organisms that are capable of producing their own food are referred as autotrophs, while the organisms that depend on autotrophs for food are referred as heterotrophs.
