Some autotrophs use sunlight energy to produce their own food. This is because autotrophs use a process called photosynthesis to make their food. This process uses energy from the sun, as well as water from the soil and carbon dioxide from the air to create glucose.

However, other autotrophs perform chemosynthesis, which does NOT require energy from the sun to produce food.

Overall, not all autotrophs use sunlight energy to produce their own food, but a large chunk of them do.

Describe the process of breathing
taurus [48]
Breathing begins with inhalation when the contraction of the diaphragm flattens on contraction, pulling the lungs down. The contraction of these muscles increases the volume of the lungs. This reduces the air pressure in the lung to below that of the external air. This pressure difference forces air to move into the lungs where gas exchange occurs. The relaxation of the diaphragm and intercostals reduces the volume of the lungs, which then increases the air pressure inside the lung to that above the external air. This forces air out of the lungs. The cycle goes on and on. Hope this helped!
