Definição
Inglês
:
The processes by which organisms use simple
inorganic substances
such as gaseous or dissolved
carbon dioxide
and inorganic
nitrogen
as nutrient sources. Contrasts with
heterotrophic processes
which make use of organic
materials
as the nutrient
supply
source. Autotrophs can be either chemoautotrophs (or chemolithotrophs), largely
ARCHAEA
and
BACTERIA
, which also use simple
inorganic substances
for their metabolic
energy
reguirements; or photoautotrophs (or photolithotrophs), such as
PLANTS
and
CYANOBACTERIA
, which derive their
energy
from light. Depending on environmental conditions some organisms can switch between different nutritional modes (autotrophy; HETEROTROPHY; chemotrophy; or PHOTOTROPHY) to utilize different sources to meet their nutrient and
energy
requirements.
