Heterotrophs include

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Heterotrophs are organisms that obtain their food from other organisms. Producers, on the other hand, are autotrophs that produce their own food through photosynthesis, so they are not considered heterotrophs. Therefore, the options that include producers (A and E) are incorrect. Consumers and decomposers, however, are both examples of heterotrophs, so option B is the best choice. Option D is also incorrect because it only includes consumers and does not include decomposers.
