Answer:

heterotroph, living organism that obtains its energy from carbohydrates and other organic material. All animals and most bacteria and fungi are heterotrophic. In contrast, autotrophs are organisms that use inorganic substances as energy sources and carbon dioxide as a carbon source.

  • A heterotroph is an organism that eats other plants or animals for energy and nutrients.
  • The term stems from the Greek words hetero for “other” and trophe for “nourishment.”
  • Organisms are characterized into two broad categories based upon how they obtain their energy and nutrients: autotrophs and heterotrophs
