The right answer is heterotrophic.

Phytoplankton is plant plankton, that is to say, all plant organisms living in suspension in water. More precisely, it concerns all autotrophic plankton species with respect to carbon (including bacteria such as cyanobacteria, formerly "blue-green algae").


Phytoplankton produces half of the oxygen consumed by all heterotrophic living things and volcanoes (they consume oxygen by burning organic carbon from sediments in the subduction zones). It captures solar energy through photosynthesis.


Whales are large marine mammals classified in the order Cetacea. And it is known that mammals are heterotrophic living beings (need to feed on pre-existing organic constituents).

Why are so many starch grains found in the cortex?
rosijanka [135]

There are many grains of starch in the cortex because it represents the reserve food material of plants.

This source of food material is consumed during plant metabolism, as food when plants are under stress, or as an energy source in seed germination and early seedling stages.

The cortex, in plants, is a vascular tissue responsible for the transport of food (processed sap) from the leaves to the rest of the plant .

Starch grains are the most common solid particles that plant cells develop within plastids.

Assimilation starch is a temporary product of photosynthesis and is formed in chloroplasts, while reserve starch is formed in amyloplasts, which are contained in parenchymal cells of the cortex, in vascular tissues of stems and roots, in the pith of stems, in fruits, leaves, fleshy cotyledons and in modified stems, such as tubers and rhizomes.

Starch is the main energy and carbon reserve in plants, supplying the energy and carbon skeletons necessary for the plant's metabolism during periods of darkness, when photosynthesis is inactive.

Therefore, we can conclude that starch grains (ergasstic substances) are found in abundance in the cortex because it represents a reserve of essential molecules for the functioning and maintenance of the cellular structure.
