Answer:

The correct answer is plastics.

Explanation:

The recycling of plastic has become a major essential sector of recycling. However, only less than ten percent of the production of plastic from the United States Solid Waste stream is getting recycled. The plastic usage still is the prime global environmental issues. On the basis of the reports of EPA, only 9.1 percent of the plastic substance produced in the United States got recycled in 2015, and the rest were sent to the landfills.  

The majority of the plastics used in the United States are PET, that is, polyethylene terephthalate. About 2.4 million tons of PET plastic is discarded in the United States every year. Of these approximately 26 percent and 41 percent of this are used in the form of water bottles.

In your own words Describe how autotrophs and heterotrophs obtain energy. please this answer must be at least 150 words any one
blsea [12.9K]

The autotrophs are the primary producer in the food chain and they are the ones who initiate the food chain. They produce food by using sunlight or sometimes chemical energy or reactions. They primarily use carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to form sugars or carbohydrates which become their energy source. They use the process of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to generate food. Examples of autotrophs are green plants, green algae, bacteria.

Heterotrophs cannot make their food via sunlight or other inorganic sources and hence are dependent on the autotrophs or other animals. The heterotrophs have been ranked as secondary and tertiary consumers and cannot be producers.  They consume the organic products made by autotrophs to obtain energy for various metabolic and biological activities. The heterotrophs can be herbivore, carnivore, fungi, parasitic plants.

Some are photo-hetrotrophs,  who use light as energy but cannot use carbon  dioxide as the carbon source since they cannot fix the carbon like autotrophs.
