  • Tomato plants contain chlorophyll which allows them to prepare their own food through photosynthesis. Thus, it is an autotrophic plant.
  • Pitcher plants also contain chlorophyll and can prepare their food through photosynthesis. However, it obtains nitrogen by trapping insects. Thus, it is a partially heterotrophic plant.
  • Mushrooms are fungi which obtain their nutrition from dead and decaying matter and thus, they are heterotrophic in nature.
