Answer:
Heterotrophic nutrition is a type of nutrition in which organisms depend upon other organisms for food to survive. Heterotrophic organisms have to take in all the organic substances they need to survive. No All animals, fungi, and non-photosynthesizing plants are heterotrophic. In contrast, green plants, red algae, brown algae, and cyanobacteria are all autotrophs, which use photosynthesis to produce their own food from sunlight. Heterotrophic mode of nutrition is of three types: 1. Saprotrophic nutrition 2. Parasitic nutrition 3. Holozoic nutrition
