Organisms that synthesize their own organic compounds from inorganic ones are called autotrophs.
The phenomenon is autotrophy; green plants and some other organisms perform it by photosynthesis, while some prokaryotes perform chemosynthesis, synthesizing organic substances using energy not from light but from inorganic chemical reactions.
When discussing ecosystems, autotrophs are called producers.
An animal that produces its own food is called an autotroph. For example plants
An organism that makes its own food is called an autotroph. This process is known as photosynthesis, where the organism uses sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce energy in the form of glucose. Plants are a common example of autotrophs.
An organism that cannot make its own food is called a heterotroph. Heterotrophs rely on external sources of organic compounds for nutrition, as they cannot perform photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to produce their own food. Examples include animals, fungi, and some bacteria.

No, a producer is an organism that can make its own food through processes like photosynthesis. They do not rely on consuming other organisms for energy like consumers do.

An organism that cannot make its own food is called a heterotroph.
An organism that must take in food is called a heterotroph. An organism that is able to make their own food is called an autotroph.

It is called single celled when it DOES produce its own food and multi celled when it can't produce its own food.
an organism that can make its own food is called an autotroph, usually it is the 'producer' in a food chain.
