\bold{\huge{\fbox{\color{purple}{Autotrophic}}}}

Autotrophic (auto - self; trophe - nutrition) nutrition is the process in which an organism uses inorganic substances such as carbon dioxide, water and minerals to make its own food through another process called photosynthesis. It occurs in green plants and some forms of bacteria. Therefore, such organisms that follow the autotrophic mode of nutrition are called autotrophs.

\bold{\huge{\fbox{\color{purple}{Heterotrophic}}}}

Animals and non-green plants, such as fungi and bacteria convert prepare their own food. They depend directly or indirectly on green plants for their nutrition. This mode of nutrition in which an organism cannot make its own food and depends on other organisms for food is called heterotrophic (hetero - different; trophe - nutrition) nutrition. Animals and non-green plants that follow the heterotrophic mode of nutrition are called heterotrophs.
