Is a mushroom a heterotrough or autotrough?
A mushroom is a heterotroph, meaning it obtains its nutrition by consuming organic matter from other sources. It cannot produce its own food through photosynthesis like autotrophs.
Can a mushroom digest its food?
no it cant digest its own food
How do you call the plants that produce their own food?
All plants produce there own food through photosynthesis, although to do that they need water and carbon dioxide (H20+C02-->light-->glucose and 02). Plants that do not produce their own food are called Fungi (mushroom and toadstools). Although Fungi aren't actual plants they have their own place in the tree of life completetly separated from the branches of plants and animals.

What is an organism that can not make its own food?

What organisms produce their own food?
Plants, algae, and certain bacteria are organisms that are able to produce their own food through a process called photosynthesis. These organisms have chlorophyll, a pigment that allows them to convert sunlight into energy to make their own organic compounds like sugars.
