Yeah now the below ones will be from internet posted↓↓

Heterotrophic nutrition is a mode of nutrition in which organisms depend upon other organisms for food to survive. They can't make there food own like Green plants. ... In contrast, green plants, red algae, brown algae, and cyanobacteria are all autotrophs, which use photosynthesis to produce their own food from sunlight.

Heterotrophic nutrition can be one of three types – holozoic, saprophytic or parasitic.

The non-green plants, for example. Fungi, yeast, mushroom, bread mold, are called heterotrophs. They have a heterotrophic mode of nutrition. Therefore, all animals like dogs, cats, cow, buffalo, lion, tiger, deer as well as human beings are called heterotrophs.

Holozoic nutrition involves the ingestion and internal processing of solid and liquid food in an organism. This involves the steps of ingestion, digestion, absorption, assimilation and excretion.

Saprophytes (animals which follow saprophytic nutrition) feed on dead and decayed organisms for energy. They are an important part of the ecosystem as they help to keep our environment clean and recycle nutrient back into the ecosystem.

Organisms that live in or on other organisms and acquire food at the expense of its host are called parasites. Most parasites are harmful to the hosts’ health; sometimes, they even kill the host. Both animals and plants may serve as a host. Unlike commensalism, the parasite causes some harm to its host. A few examples of parasites are louse on a human head, Cuscuta plant and tapeworms.
