Question

Is it zebra autotroph or heterotroph?

Answer 1

Heterotroph:

1. Heterotrophs are those organisms which cannot prepare their own food from nature and hence depend on other organisms which produce food (autotrophs).
2. They are directly or indirectly dependant on these producers for food.
3. Zebra is an animal, and it, like all other animals, is a heterotroph.
4. However, as a plant, Aphelandra squarrosa, often known as the Zebra Plant, is an autotroph.
