The differences between the autotrophic, heterotrophic, and mixotrophic strategies for obtaining energy and nutrition can be found below:

MODE OF NUTRITION:

  • Nutrition is way by which an organism obtains food for its energy production. The different modes of nutrition employed by organisms is as follows:

  • AUTOTROPHIC: Autotrophic is the mode of nutrition in which certain organisms like green plants, algae etc. obtain their own food by using sunlight (photosynthesis) or chemicals (chemosynthesis).

  • HETEROTROPHIC: Heterotrophic is the mode of nutrition in which organisms cannot manufacture their own food hence, depend on other organisms for their energy source. Examples of heterotrophic organisms are animals, fungi etc.

  • MIXOTROPHIC: Mixotrophic nutrition is one in which an organism uses more than one mode of nutrition e.g a combination of autotrophic and heterotrophic nutrition. For example, Euglena.

How do photosynthesis and cellular respiration interact to cycle matter through an ecosystem
Lisa [10]

Explanation:

Photosynthesis captures carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and converts it to biomass. This is why forests are referred to as great carbon sinks because they remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and incorporate it in the biosphere.

Cellular respiration, on the other hand, converts the carbon captured in the biosphere into carbon dioxide that is released into the atmosphere. Cellular respiration usually 'burns' glucose into carbon dioxide.

These two processes work antagonistically and cycle carbon matter through the biosphere and atmosphere.

What are 2 abiotic limiting factors that could limit the growth of a greenhouse full of tomatoes
anastassius [24]

Answer:   Light and Temperature

Explanation:

With more light, the photosynthesis occurs faster. In most cases the grower will try to have the photosynthesis occur as fast as possible. With a lot of light available, the temperature may go up. On darker days, a lower temperature is desired. Only with really high amounts and really low amounts, light can be influenced; respectively screening and supplemental lighting.
