The mode of nutrition defines an organism that consumes the way food is.

The mode of nutrition is broadly classified into two categories:

  1. Autotrophic mode
  2. Heterotrophic mode

Autotrophic mode :

  • It is shown by plants, algae, and bacteria (cyanobacteria).
  • They synthesis their food through the process of photosynthesis.

Heterotrophic mode:

  • In this, the organism cannot prepare its food. They depend on autotrophs for the food and the nutrients directly or indirectly.
  • They can be the various mode of the heterotrophic mode of nutrition.

Such as

  1. Parasites (e.g., leeches, ticks)
  2. Saprophytes (e.g., mushrooms)
  3. Holozoic (e.g., humans, dogs)
