Heterotroph - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

What is an autoroph?make their own food (photosynthesis) What is a heterotroph?An organism that cannot make its own food; a consumer what is the difference between an autotroph and a heterotroph?autotrophs make their own food while heterotrophs can't make it's own food what is photorespiration?a respiratory process in many higher plants by which they take up oxygen in the light and give out some carbon dioxide, contrary to the general pattern of photosynthesis

Define 'energy'. - -The capacity to do work (to cause change) Compare potential energy and kinetic energy. Classify different energy forms into one of these two categories. - Potential Energy = stored energy 1. Chemical Energy: E stored in bonds of atoms and molecules 2. Concentration Gradient: concentration differences across membrane 3. Gravitational Energy: E of position or place 4. Stored Mechanical Energy: E stored in objects by application of a force Energy Energy = motion 1. Ele...

TEAS Test Science Questions and Answers 2023 An organism with chloroplasts in its cells is probably. a. a heterotroph b. an autotroph c. an herbivore d. a primary consumer - ANS-B: Organisms that have chloroplasts in their cells carry on photosynthesis and are therefore autotrophs. Autotrophs make their own food.
