Atotrophic Nutton Heterdtrophic Nutrtion


Auto - Setf. Tophic -Feeding Heo - Other/Different
Prepare their own food Depend on thers for food
Chemosyrthesis Saprophyte
Preparing fod using cherical energy Absonption of nutrients from dead
eg, Suphur Oidising Bacteria and decaying malter eg, hungi
i* Parasitic
*Phtosunthesis Absorb nutrients from the host onganism
Preparing fod using lght energy e.g.. ,Leech, Cuscta
eg, Pants, Algae
Holozoic
CHaroghyl Food is taken in solid or liquid fonm
Sunlight
'Sunlight - Main source of energy for all onganisms from the outside and is digested inside
0,-By product, Used for respiration the body eg.,Humans, Amoeba
12Holozoic NuoNTton Ivolves 5slages
1. Ingesion: Process of itake of solid on liqid food
2, Digestion: Conversion of complex food pafticdes ito simple and
absorbable form
3, Absorption: Process oftaking up of digested fod or ntrients by the body
4 Asimiatiom: Urdisalion of absorbed mtrients for body fundtons
5, Egeston: Removal of undigested food through anus
