what are the differences betweek autotrophs and heterotrophs?
547274
The heterotrophs are those who feed from pranic energy from breathing and from water and animal and/or vegetable food that digest in their stomachs.  The only pranic energy is not enough to maintain alive a heterotroph person, likewise the only food and water are neither enough to maintain the heterotroph alive since he or she need breathing.  The autotrophs are people that only feed from pranic energy and live a healthy and active life.  They take the pranic energy mainly through the crown chakra

photosythesis and aerobic cell respiration are REVERSE equations of each other and would probably be described as the TWO most important chemical equations on the planet, (but all equations are important!). Plants are crucial to aerobic life on earth!\n\nPHOTOSYNTHESIS is a synthesis reaction taking small inorganic molecules to make a larger organic molecule (and inorganic byproduct, oxygen. It occurs in the chloroplast of green plants (with chlorophyll pigment) and some photosynthetic bacteria:\n\nEQUATION in words, not formulas: \n\ncarbon dioxide plus water makes glucose sugar (carbs) and oxygen gas (but it needs the sunproper temp, chlorophyll and proper nutirents in the soil to occur\n\nAEROBIC CELL RESPIRATION is a catabolic-decomposition reaction where a larger organic molecule (glucose) is broken down into smaller inorganic molecules (CO2 and H2O) and occurs in the mitochondria of the cell, plant or animal:\n\nEQUATION IN WORDS, not formulas: \n\nglucose (in the presence of oxygen) converts to carbon dioxide, water, ATP (energy molecule) and heat. This is AEROBIC, not anaerobic.\n\nThus plants are able to "take care of themselves." They can make their own glucose from the sun, but then can do cell respiration from glucose they made from photosynthesis. We can't do photosynthesis, so we have to go eat carbs and are thus called heterotrophs.  It's why plants are called autotroph producers.  Anything that eats plants or animals is called a consumer or heterotroph.

Photosynthetic organisms, or that other kind that works off of heat vents on the ocean floor (thermophyllic bacteria).\n\nAnd I was reminded of a good word... autotrophs\n\nAn autotroph (from the Greek autos = self and trophe = nutrition) is an organism that produces organic compounds from carbon dioxide as a carbon source, using either light or reactions of inorganic chemical compounds, as a source of energy. An autotroph is known as a producer in a food chain. Plants and other organisms that carry out photosynthesis are phototrophs (or photoautotrophs). Bacteria that utilize the oxidation of inorganic compounds such as hydrogen sulfide, ammonium or ferrous iron as an energy source are chemoautotrophs.\n\nAloha

False, its the other way round.\nSingle celled orgarnisms have only one cell. this cell has different components that help it become multi-funtional. this means that its single cell are not specialised. for example. an Amoeaba which is a single celled organism has a nuclei which it uses for its metabolic processes, its mitochondria for energy, its cell wall for movement. so this one cell of an amoeba can perform different functions.\n\nmulti cellular ogarnisms have different cells that have been specialised for different purposes. e.g respiratory cells are for metabolic processes, growth cells are for growth, digestive cells are for digestion. \n\nthe digestive cells in a multicellular organisn come together to form digestive tissues. the digestive tissues will come together to form a digestive organ, different digestive organs will form the digestive system. different systems form the body.\n\nthanks. chaoo

(1)\n- Animals are heterotrophs, i.e. they need to feed of other living things\n- Plants are (most plants are) autotrophs, i.e. they can produce their own food from the sun\n\n(2)\n- plants convert carbon dioxide to oxygen (and sugar) during the day...\n- animals need oxygen, but can't produce it themselves\n\n(3)\n- plants decrease the level of carbon dioxide in the air (which would otherwise make breathing hard for animals).

Producers. Organisms, such as plants, that produce their own food are called autotrophs. The autotrophs, as mentioned before, convert inorganic compounds into organic compounds. They are called producers because all of the species of the ecosystem depend oConsumers. All the organisms that can not make their own food (and need producers) are called heterotrophs. In an ecosystem heterotrophs are called consumers because they depend on others. They obtain food by eating other organisms. There are different levels of consumers. Those that feed directly from producers, i.e. organisms that eat plant or plant products are called primary consumers. In the figure above the grasshopper is a primary consumern them                                                                          Organisms that feed on primary consumers are called secondary consumers. Those who feed on secondary consumers are tertiary consumers. In the figure above the snake acts as a secondary consumer and the hawk as a tertiary consumer. Some organisms, like the squirrel are at different levels. When the squirrel eats acorns or fruits (which are plant product), it is a primary consumer; however, when it eats insects or nestling birds, is it is a tertiary consumer.\nConsumers are also classified depending on what they eat\nHerbivores are those that eat only plants or plant products. Example are grasshoppers, mice, rabbits, deer, beavers, moose, cows, sheep, goats and groundhogs.\nCarnivores, on the other hand, are those that eat only other animals. Examples of carnivores are foxes, frogs, snakes, hawks, and spiders.\nOmnivores are the last type and eat both plants (acting a primary consumers) and meat (acting as secondary or tertiary consumers). Examples of omnivores are:\nBears --They eat insects, fish, moose, elk, deer, sheep as well as honey, grass, and sedges. Turtles -- They eat snails, crayfish, crickets, earthworms, but also lettuce, small plants, and algae. Monkeys -- They eat frogs and lizards as well as fruits, flowers, and leaves. Squirrels -- They eat insects, moths, bird eggs and nestling birds and also seeds, fruits, acorns, and nuts

The sun provides energy to living organisms of the Earth.  There are autrophs and heterotrophs.  Autotrophs (like plants) use sunlight to turn CO2 and Water, which cannot be further oxidized as fuel into GLucose, which can be burned by a cell as a source of fuel.  Low rung food chain heterotrophs eat autotrophs (these are herbivores) and get their calories (food is a source of chemical potential energy) from the glucose (and some other chemicals) made by autotrophs.  \n\nHigher level heterotrophs eat the lower level heterotrophs, getting their calories from proteins and fats of the herbivores they are eating.  The calories contained in the proteins and fats of the herbivores is derived from the calories of the autotrophs.  In essence, the calories from food on this planet are derived from energy from sunlight that plants have converted to chemical form.

THERE IS A LOT OF INFO ON THEM TO FIT INTO 1 answer, thus i will give u a link to a very good website which discusses them\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_(biology)

Both being unicellular (no matter what anybody said), and generally autotrophic organisms... All protists are unicellular, and not all algae belong to Regnum Protista... Place of algae in Whittaker's 5 Regnums is not well explained, and multicellular algae belong to Regnum Plantae... If someone has better idea where to classify them they could make a career out of it...\nBut remember, most people still divide all the organisms into 2 Regnums: plants and animals...

Heterotrophic nutrition is the nutrition of organisms which need ready made complex organic molecules, they obtain these wither directly from plants, or from organisms which have fed on plants. Thus heterotrophic organisms are the consumers in an ecosystem.

One thing that differs plants from animal is their  hability to synthetize (create) the own food.  Plant build carbohidrates from the photosynthesis process.  Animal can't build their own food.  \n\nBut in the kingdom Protista are living organism that have the two charateristics.  Build their own food and eat other substances as an energy source.  One example is the single-celled Euglena.

1. b, because even if the father was heterzygous, there would still be a 3:1 ratio of brown eyed offspring\n2.d, autotrophs are organisms that produce their own food and do not need to  get nutrients from other sources\n3. True, I believe that fertilization occurs in all sexuallly reproducing species, but there are some organisms that reproduce asexually, but you may not be talking about those.\n4. False, There are asexual organisms that are eukaryotic

consumers are referred to the heterotrophs (who depend on producers and decomposers for their food).

Autotrophic organisms, for example organisms in kingdom Plantae, are able to manufacture their own food based on basic abiotic factors. Autotrophs can create their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis.\n\nHeterotrohpic organisms, for example organisms in kingdom Animalia, must consume other organisms for food. Heterotrophs can be either carnivorous, herbivorous, or omnivorous.

Bacteria are procaryotes. Their cell structure is different from those of plants and animals (Eucaryotes) they are in their own category altogether. Years and years ago they were categorized as plants. Some of them have clorophyll. How old is your brother's science book?

WHAT FUNGI IS A HETEROTROPH??!?!??!?!?! i thought that heterotrophs eat other heterotrophs or autotrophs for energy and i dont think mushrooms do that. Anyways the 4 heterotrophs are birds, wolves, snakes, and bears.
