Answer:
Autotrophic nutrition is a process where the organism prepares its food from the simple inorganic materials like water, mineral salts and carbon dioxide in the presence of sunlight. All the green plants possess an autotrophic mode of nutrition.
Photoautotrophs are organisms who get the energy to make organic materials from sunlight. They include all plants, green algae, and bacteria which perform photosynthesis.
Chemoautotrophs are organisms that obtain energy from inorganic chemical processes. Chemoautotrophs are usually bacteria or archaebacteria, as their metabolisms are usually not efficient enough to support multicellularity.
