Question

Name three heterotrophs from the movie Lion king? Why are thy heterotrophs?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

A heterotroph is an organism that cannot produce its own food, then it needs to eat other organisms (plants or animals) to get sources of organic carbon and nutrients. In the food chain, heterotrophs are primary, secondary and tertiary consumers, but not producers. By consuming reduced carbon compounds, heterotrophs use that energy for many biological functions. So they obtains its food and energy by taking in organic substances, instead of producing them by their own.

Examples of Heterotroph are:

• Carnivores such as lions, which are predators that eat herbivores and other carnivores.
• Hyenas, also carnivores, they are apex predator, meaning they are not preyed upon by any other animal.
• Omnivores such as a mandrill, which eats plants and other animals.

Answer 2
