A. It would be a animal. The definition of a heterotroph is an organism that is nutritionally dependent on another organism. Since animals are dependent on other organisms it would be a heterotroph. A fungus is not a heterotroph because it makes its own food and is nutritionally independent

Asked by breana b - Tue Dec 2 23:12:52 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Heterotroph is an organism that requires organic substrates to get its chemical energy for its life cycle.[1] This contrasts with autotrophs such as plants which are able to directly use sources of energy such as light to produce organic substrates from inorganic carbon dioxide. An example would be Cyanobacteria synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. Heterotrophs are known as consumers in food chains and obtain organic carbon by eating other heterotrophs or autotrophs. All animals are heterotrophic, as well as fungi and many bacteria. Some animals, such as corals, form symbiotic relationships with autotrophs and obtain organic carbon in this way. Furthermore, some parasitic plants have also turned fully or partially heterotrophic, while so-called… [cont.]

Q. What evidence supports the idea that a stentor is an heterotroph?
Asked by Tory - Wed Apr 25 18:23:21 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Autumn (the Fall) is a good time of year to find Stentor because leaves falling into a pond increase the bacteria population feeding on the decaying vegetation. This leads in turn to an increase in the population of protozoa such as Stentor which feed on the bacteria. Colonies of Stentor often occur, in which the lower parts of the animals are covered with a mucilaginous substance which they secrete. The rim of the trumpet is surrounded by a crown of cilia (vibrating hairs) which beat to produce a current that draws particles of food down into the gullet.To find new feeding grounds, the animal swims by means of cilia that cover the body. Stentor can be very colourful - there are green, blue and amethyst colored species. The figure on… [cont.]

Asked by hockeynut2227 - Mon Oct 13 19:04:10 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The energy from the autotroph is used up, so only a small amount of energy goes to the heterotroph. On top of that, most of the energy ingested is converted into heat energy, so if another heterotroph eats this heterotroph, then even less energy will be transferred.

A. Autotrophs make their own food molecules through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. (plants, algae, some bacteria) Heterotrophs must get their food molecules from another organism by eating it or by absorbing the nutrition (animals, fungi, protozoa, slime molds, some bacteria).

Is a Venus Flytrap considered to be a heterotroph or an autotroph?
Q. A Venus Flytrap will photosynthesize, so it makes its own food, classifying it as an autotroph, however it will capture flies, making it fall under the category of a heterotroph, something that catches its own food, like humans. So, what kind of "troph" is this?
Asked by Stub-mevrow - Wed Feb 28 19:00:43 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It is an autotroph that is carnivorous or Non vegetarian. As it grows in nitrogen deficient environ , it cannot built up its own proteins and hence relies on insect hunting ( They are rich in proteins!) Leguminous plants are also autotrophs and have root nodules for nitrogen fixing ( Ultimately for protein synthesis.)

Asked by June - Mon Nov 19 20:22:31 2007 - - 8 Answers - 0 Comments

A. A heterotroph is a living thing that gets its energy from carbohydrates and other organic material. All animals and most bacteria and fungi are heterotrophic, including you. Autotrophs are organisms that use inorganic substances as energy sources and carbon dioxide as a carbon source. SO, neither one is inherently good or bad. They just have different ways of paying the biological rent.

A. "Chemoautotrophs (or chemotrophic autotroph), (Gk: Chemo = chemical, auto = self, troph = nourishment) in addition to deriving energy from chemical reactions, synthesize all necessary organic compounds from carbon dioxide." "An autotroph (from the Greek autos = self and trophe = nutrition, related to trephein = to make solid, congeal, thicken) is an organism that produces complex organic compounds from simple inorganic molecules using energy from light (by photosynthesis) or inorganic chemical reactions." "A heterotroph (chemoorganotrophy: Greek heteros = another and trophe = nutrition) is an organism that uses organic substrates to get its chemical energy for its life cycle."

The difference between an autotroph and a heterotroph is that?
Q. 1. Heterotrophs must get energy from sources other than the sun. 2. Heterotrophs can use chemical or light energy sources. 3. Heterotrophs do not obtain energy from autotrophs. 4. All of the above.

A. The answer is #1. The autotroph makes its own food by converting solar energy (sun) into chemical energy. The heterotroph gets its food from any other source including other autotrophs. Remember that auto usually means self and hetero means other. And trophic means to eat.
