Hello


Autotrophs

Autotrophs are organisms which are able to make their own organic molecules. Autotrophs are prokaryotes that can produce all of their cellular components from simplemolecules such as H2O, CO2, NH3, and H2S. These are self-sufficient cells that utilize CO2 from the atmosphere as the carbon source.

Heterotrophs

Heterotrophs rely on autotrophs to provide a continuous supply of new organic molecules. Photosynthesis provides the means by which carbon in carbon dioxide is fixed by conversion to carbohydrates includingsugars such as glucose and sucrose, cellulose and starches such as amylopectin.
