$\bullet$ Biotic components are divided into autotrophs and heterotrophs.
$\bullet$ Autotrophs include all those organisms which produce food from simple inorganic matter in the presence of sunlight. Since they produce their own food, they are also known as producers.
$\bullet$ Heterotrophs are those organisms which cannot produce food on their own and take nutrition from other organisms.
$\bullet$ Heterotrophs are further divided into consumers and decomposers.
