Explanation:

Heterotrophic nutrition is a type of nutrition in which organisms depend upon other organisms for food to survive. All animals and non-green plants are heterotrophic. 

Heterotrophic nutrition is of three types – saprophytic, parasitic and holozoic.

Saprophytic or Saprotrophic Nutrition: It is a mode of heterotrophic nutrition in which food is obtained from organic remains like dead organisms, excreta, fallen leaves, broken twigs, food articles, etc.

for example. Fungi, yeast, mushroom, bread mold, are called heterotrophs. Therefore, all animals like dogs, cats, cow, buffalo, lion, tiger, deer as well as human beings are called heterotrophs.
