Autotrophs obtain energy by the process of photosynthesis. Any living organism need energy to survive and autotrophs are no different. Two types of autotrophs are present and they are Photoautotrophs and Chemoautotrophs. The Photoautotrophs rely on the energy produced during the process of photosynthesis and the Chemoautotrophs get their energy from most of the inorganic substances. Phtoautotrophs actually get their energy from the sunlight and then convert it into reusable form. In case of Chemoautotrophs ammonia is an important source of energy for them.

Well, autotrophs are living things that produce their own food like plants. While heterotrophs get their food from other sources like the autotrophs e.g man
   Autotrophs obtain their food from a process called photosynthesis. Energy is gotten from the sun, which helps them to manufacture their food. Well, according to the word photosynthesis, photo means light, and synthesis means combining or putting together. We all know that plants need light, water, air and nutrients to survive. This light needed is gotten through the process of photosynthesis. Energy is gotten from the light of the sun. Photosynthesis takes place in the leaves. It is also responsible for the green color. Hydrogen and carbon dioxide in the air are used to form food. Chlorophyll and some other pigments absorb energy from sunlight. All these can be proven by the reaction between water and carbon dioxide. They produce glucose and oxygen. Glucose is the food;
carbon dioxide + water→glucose+ oxygen
  This reaction takes place in the presence of sunlight. Hope i helped.

Answer:

The moths were typically white with black speckles, which helped them blend in. There was a mutation that caused some of them to be almost entirely black, which would make them easier to spot and get eaten. However, one event that left the trees covered in ash and soot was an advantage for these moths. They blended into the trees more so than the other ones, and there was a giant fluctuation of them. The mutated ones now had a better chance of staying camofluaged, and the white and black speckled ones were more likely to get eaten.
