What are anaerobic heterotrophs?

Answer 1

A photoautotroph is when an organism is able to create its own food from sunlight. Photo means light and troph refers to the word "feeder". When the word is broken down it is much easier to understand.

Answer 2

Anaerobic heterotrophs are organisms that rely on external sources of organic compounds for both energy and carbon. They do not require oxygen for metabolism and can survive in environments where oxygen is absent or in low concentrations. Examples include certain types of bacteria and archaea that obtain nutrients by breaking down organic matter through fermentation or anaerobic respiration.

Answer 3

• Anaerobic organisms can live without free oxygen.

• Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot produce their own food.

• Therefore and anaerobic heterotroph can live w/o free oxygen but cannot produce its own food.

Answer 4

Anaerobic photoautotrophs are related to cyanobacteria (formerly known as blue green algae) that carry out photosynthesis, the process in which light energy powers the transfer of electrons from inorganis donors to CO2 yielding carbohydrates [(CH2O)n].

This is the basis of the theory that try to explain how the O2 was generated in the Earth's atmosphere.

Answer 5

Phototrophic heterotrophs are organisms which only depend on light for their energy. They produce ATP through the process of photophosphorylation.

Answer 6

organisums get there energy from sun light.
