LenaWriter [7]

Heterotrophs are organisms that must consume food from other organisms because they are unable to synthesize their own food molecules.

<h3>What is heterotrophs?</h3>
  • An organism is referred to be a heterotroph if it is unable to manufacture food on its own and must obtain it from other sources of organic carbon, primarily plant or animal materials.
  • Heterotrophs are primary, secondary, and tertiary consumers in the food chain but not producers.
  • Because they eat producers or other consumers, heterotrophs are referred to as consumers.
  • Humans, dogs, and birds are all instances of heterotrophs.
  • In a food chain, a group of creatures that supply energy and nutrients to other organisms, heterotrophs occupy the second and third levels.
  • An organism is referred to as a heterotroph if it consumes other plants or animals for food and energy.
  • Its origins are in the Greek words hetero, which means "other," and trophe, which means "nutrition."
  • Autotrophs and heterotrophs are two main classifications of organisms depending on how they receive energy and nutrients.

What would most likely happen if a person increased the amount of saturated fat in his or her diet?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The person's risk of cardiovascular disease would increase.

Explanation:

saturated refers to all single bonds in the hydrocarbon chain, meaning no kinks in the chain. The hydrocarbon has the most number of carbons it can have, as there are all single bonds. If the hydrocarbon has even one less carbon, there would be kink, and it would be unsaturated and liquid. Our body needs less carbon, so unsaturated fats are better. But having saturated fats means no liquid, rather solid, which means harder for the blood to get to the heart. So your risk would cardiovascular disease would increase
