Autotrophs:
An autotroph is a living thing that can generate its food from light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals.

The photosynthetic activity of the chlorophyll pigments in the chloroplasts provides nutrient materials to bryophytes.
As a result, they exhibit an autotrophic mode of nutrition.
