NikAS [45]

Answer:

The osprey card and its description should be placed in the heterotrophs group.

Explanation:

Organisms that can synthesize inorganic substances, such as light, and turn it into food according to their own needs are <u>producers</u>, and they are called a<u>utotrophic organisms</u>. These organisms are by excellence all <u>plants</u>, that <u>photosynthesize</u>.  Organisms that are incapable of producing their food are called <u>heterotrophic organisms</u>. They <em>depend on other organisms</em> from the trophic chain such as plants or other animals to feed on, so they can get proteins and energy.

In the trophic chain, heterotrophic organisms occupy the <u>first, second or third consumer level</u>, after producers.

There are different types of heterotrophic animals: carnivorous, herbivorous, omnivorous, hematophagous, ichthyophagous, and etcetera. All of them depend on autotrophic organisms.
