They cells that make their own food are cells with chlorophyll or another sort of organelle that can do this. They are called chemoautotroph it an organism that creates its own organic food from inorganic chemicals. These organisms that usually live in harsh environments.These are believed to be some of the earliest living organisms, since they would have been able to live off of the chemicals that were present early in the Earth's existence. Some of the chemicals that they use are iron, nitrogen, sulfur and magnesium.
An example are nitrogen fixing bacteria.
But the most familiar are the ones we call plants.

Animals are unable to make their own food because their cells lack?
Chlorophyll
One way plant and animals are different?
Plants are autothropic - meaning they can make their own food. Animals are heterotrophic - meaning they can't make their own food. Animals are also mobile.
List the names and characteristics of fungus-like protists?
1) heterotrophic (they cannot make their own food) 2) Eukaryotic (their cells have a nucleus) 3) autotrophs (they make their own food from the sun's energy).
Plant cells make their own food by taking in what?
Nutients and water absorbed into the earth
