Question

what are the different between autotrophic nutrition and heterotrophic nutrition ????

Answer 1

Autotrophic Nutrition In autotrophic nutrition organism prepares its food from simple substances present in the surroundings .Heterotrophic Nutrition In heterotrophic nutrition organism obtains food from digesting organic compounds .Autotrophic Nutrition Autotrophs are the producers in the food chain .Heterotrophic Nutrition Heterotrophs are the consumers in the food chain .Autotrophic Nutrition Example : Plants obtain food by autotrophic nutrition .Heterotrophic Nutrition Example : Some plants and all animals obtain food by heterotrophic nutrition .Autotrophic Nutrition utotrophs are fundamental to the food chains of all ecosystems in the world. They take energy from the environment in the form of sunlight or inorganic chemicals and use it to create energy-rich molecules such as carbohydrates. This mechanism is called primary production.Heterotrophic Nutrition Other organisms, called heterotrophs, take in autotrophs as food to carry out functions necessary for their life. Thus, heterotrophs — all animals, almost all fungi, as well as most bacteria and protozoa — depend on autotrophs, or primary producers, for the energy and raw materials they need.Autotrophic Nutrition Types of Autotrophic nutrition: (i)Phototrophic (ii) ChemotrophicHeterotrophic Nutrition Types of Heterotrophic nutrition : (i) Holozoic (ii) Saprophytic (iii)Parasitic and (iv) Symboitic Association

Answer 2

Auto means self and troph means nutrition .. Autotrophic nutrition is that mode of nutrition in which an organism make its own food from simple inorganic materials like carbon dioxide and water present in surrounding ....

Heterotrophic nutrition is that mode of nutrition in which an organism can't make its own food from simple in organ material like carbon dioxide and water, and depend on other organism for its food....
