Answer:
AUTOTROPHS-- An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals. Because autotrophs produce their own food, they are sometimes called producers. Some types of bacteria are autotrophs. Most autotrophs use a process called photosynthesis to make their food.
HETROTROPHS- A heterotroph is an organism that eats other plants or animals for energy and nutrients. Examples include plants, algae, and some types of bacteria. Heterotrophs are known as consumers because they consume producers or other consumers. Dogs, birds, fish, and humans are all examples of heterotrophs.
