the plants work.​

Answer 1

green plants

Because green plants are capable of making their own food, they are called autotrophs.

Answer 2

Answer:

Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food, using materials from inorganic sources. The word “autotroph” comes from the root words “auto” for “self” and “troph” for “food.” Therefore an autotroph is an organism that feeds itself, without the assistance of any other organisms.

Plants create sugars from carbon dioxide gas and sunlight via the process of photosynthesis. Since they can produce their own food without having to depend on others, plants are also known as autotrophs
