Living things are classified as either an autotroph or a heterotroph. An autotroph can produce its own food from the substances which are directly available in the surrounding. Heterotrophs are not capable and are dependent on the produce of the autotrophs for food.  

Good luck!

<h2>Answer:</h2>

A heterotroph is dependent on autotroph or other heterotroph for its energy whereas Autotrophs are dependent on Sun for their energy.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Based upon the nutrition mode, the living organisms are classified as autotrophs and heterotrophs. The organism which has the ability to prepare its own food are called heterotrophs, whereas the organism which is dependent on autotrophs and other animals are called as heterotrophs.

Basically plant are called as autotrophs as they prepare their own food with help of sunlight, and water due to the presence of chlorophyll by process called photosynthesis.  

Animals and human beings are called as heterotrophs as they don't have ability to prepare their own food and in turn is dependent on plant and other animals.

If you forget your water bottle when you go for a long walk on a warm day, what signal would most likely be sent to your kidneys
Nitella [24]

When we drink less water or we are dehydrated the body will compensate for 1-2% of the total amount of water by creating a sensation of thirst. The kidneys, brain, hormones and glands work in co-ordination monitoring the amount of water consumed to the amount of water lost.

The hypothalamus gland regulates the temperature of our body and balances the processes to control the amount of fluids in body. On detecting less amount of water in blood the hypothalamus gives signals for releasing the anti-diuretic hormone which causes kidneys to remove lesser amount of water from the blood. As a result of this we urinate less and the urine is concentrated dark in appearance. The brain also signals to consume water or liquid to bring the hydration level of the body to normal.
