heterotrophs

In order to obtain energy they eat plants or other heterotrophs.

The same is true for bacteria and other heterotrophs.

Heterotrophs are consumers that cannot make their own food.

All animals are heterotrophs, meaning that they feed directly or indirectly on other living things.

Some of the organic matter eaten by heterotrophs, such as sugars, provides energy.

They are an important part of the diet of most heterotrophs (including humans).

They would become heterotrophs, organisms with the ability to absorb nutrients from the environment for energy and growth.

Over time, plant structural components are consumed by heterotrophs.

Heterotrophs with more complex biochemical reactions would have an advantage in this competition.

Heterotrophs: Organic compounds are metabolized to get carbon for growth and development.

Some organotrophs such as animals and many bacteria, are also heterotrophs.

Dead plant material in or above soils remains there for some time before being respired by heterotrophs.

Consumers (heterotrophs) are animals which cannot manufacture their own food and need to consume other organisms.

These organisms are formally referred to as heterotrophs, which include animals, bacteria and fungus.

The terms can be used to describe energy transfer in both autotrophs and heterotrophs.

They are heterotrophs that normally respire by aerobic means.

They are heterotrophs, eating bacteria and other protists.

All animals are also heterotrophs, meaning they must ingest other organisms or their products for sustenance.

Heterotrophs take in organic molecules and respire them.

Most respiring anaerobes are heterotrophs, although some do live autotrophically.

Other organisms, called heterotrophs, take in autotrophs as food to carry out functions necessary for their life.

Heterotrophs consume rather than produce biomass energy as they metabolize, grow, and add to levels of secondary production.

This means that saprophytes are heterotrophs.

The family Corsiaceae is notable for being heterotrophs.

Heterotrophs, like animals, are organisms that grow using the carbon fixed by autotrophs.
