Question

What is the difference between autotrophic and heterotrophic bacteria?

Answer 1

Autotroph vs. Heterotroph. Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food from the substances available in their surroundings using light (photosynthesis) or chemical energy (chemosynthesis). Heterotrophs cannot synthesize their own food and rely on other organisms — both plants and animals — for nutrition.

Answer 2

Autotrophic bacteria can make its own food whereas heterotrophic bacteria depends on others for its food.
