Hey mate..

nutrition is the process by which a living organism obtain the required energy for cellular needs by decomposition of acquired food materials.

▪️ In autotrophic nutrition,
the organism obtain its own food in its body parts. this is seen in most of the green plants and blue green algae they can make their own food in the presence of Sunlight using inorganic matters like carbon dioxide and water.

▪️ in heterotrophic nutrition,
organisms are depend on other organisms for their survival and food energy requirements. this is seen in most of the organism with highest cellular levels. they depend on the autotrophs directly or indirectly for the survival., examples are carnivorous animals like lions, tigers... etc
