Here is your answer friend,
All the green plants are known as autotrophs.
Autotrophs are those which can prepare their own food by the process of photosynthesis. Auto means own and trophs mean nutrition or food.Ex- plants and blue green algae.
Heterotrophs are those which cannot make their own food by the process of photosynthesis and depend upon plants and other animals. Heterotrophs can be classified into two parts-saprotrophic and parasitic. Ex-animals including humans and some non green plants.

Hope it's useful and helpful!!!
