    Heterotrophic nutrition is a mode of nutrition in which organisms depend upon other organisms for food to survive. They can't make their own food like Green plants. Heterotrophic organisms have to take in all the organic substances they need to survive. All animals, certain types of fungi, and non-photosynthesizing plants are heterotrophic.

  3. Heterotroph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterotroph

    A heterotroph (/ ˈ h ɛ t ər ə ˌ t r oʊ f,-ˌ t r ɒ f /; [1] [2] from Ancient Greek ἕτερος (héteros) ' other ' and τροφή (trophḗ) ' nutrition ') is an organism that cannot produce its own food, instead taking nutrition from other sources of organic carbon, mainly plant or animal matter. In the food chain, heterotrophs are ...

  5. Primary nutritional groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_nutritional_groups

    Organotrophs use organic compounds as electron/hydrogen donors. Lithotrophs use inorganic compounds as electron/hydrogen donors.. The electrons or hydrogen atoms from reducing equivalents (electron donors) are needed by both phototrophs and chemotrophs in reduction-oxidation reactions that transfer energy in the anabolic processes of ATP synthesis (in heterotrophs) or biosynthesis (in autotrophs).

  6. Consumer (food chain) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consumer_(food_chain)

  7. Myco-heterotrophy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myco-heterotrophy

    Monotropa uniflora, an obligate myco-heterotroph known to parasitize fungi belonging to the Russulaceae. [1]Myco-heterotrophy (from Greek μύκης mýkes ' fungus ', ἕτερος héteros ' another ', ' different ' and τροφή trophé ' nutrition ') is a symbiotic relationship between certain kinds of plants and fungi, in which the plant gets all or part of its food from parasitism upon ...

  8. Microbial metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_metabolism

    Some microbes are heterotrophic (more precisely chemoorganoheterotrophic), using organic compounds as both carbon and energy sources. Heterotrophic microbes live off of nutrients that they scavenge from living hosts (as commensals or parasites) or find in dead organic matter of all kind (saprophages). Microbial metabolism is the main ...

  9. Trophic mutualism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trophic_mutualism

    Trophic mutualism is a key type of ecological mutualism.Specifically, "trophic mutualism" refers to the transfer of energy and nutrients between two species.This is also sometimes known as resource-to-resource mutualism.
