Question

plants make their own food. what do we call organisms that make their own food? detritivore autotroph

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To solve this, we recall the definitions of the terms:

  • A detritivore is an organism that feeds on dead organic matter (detritus).
  • An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food using inorganic substances, like plants do via photosynthesis. Since plants make their own food, the correct term is autotroph.

Answer:

B. Autotroph (assuming the options are labeled with the second option as Autotroph; if the original options had labels like A and B, with A being Detritivore and B being Autotroph, then the answer is B. Autotroph)
