| Endosymbiosis of green algal unicells with two different heterotrophs led to euglenoids and to chlororachniophytes. |
|
| Unlike plants, animals are heterotrophs which means they are unable to live on inorganic nutrients alone. |
|
| This photosynthetic control of cell-cycle progression is similar to the nutritional control of heterotrophs. |
|
| The result, especially when heterotrophs are preyed upon by other heterotrophs, is a food chain. |
|
| Most bacteria, including many of the bacteria associated with drinking water systems, are heterotrophs. |
|
| Respiration enables both autotrophs and heterotrophs to obtain energy from carbohydrates. |
|
| Animals, on the other hand, are heterotrophs, life forms that depend on the consumption of plants, animals or both in order to meet their bioenergetic requirements. |
|
| All protozoans engage in heterotrophy, but not all protozoans are exclusive heterotrophs. |
|
| They are heterotrophs that mostly ingest food into a specialized cavity, where it is digested. |
|
| These heterotrophs undergo an extraordinary sequence of events during their life history. |
|
| In contrast to autotrophs, heterotrophs are unable to produce organic substances from inorganic ones. |
|
| Other opportunistic heterotrophs have received attention based on their ability to grow within drinking water systems. |
|
| Throughout this process, the energy that is incorporated by plants into the biomass is liberated through the respiration of autotrophs and heterotrophs, and gradually dissipates as heat. |
|
| The reactors actually contain a mini ecosystem that includes other species of bacteria, known as heterotrophs, which mop up metabolic products that would otherwise slow Methylococcus's growth. |
|
| Recent studies indicate that levels of phytoplankton are generally low over most of the Antarctic Ocean and suggest that heterotrophs are exploiting all major production events. |
|
| These organisms are then replaced by heterotrophs that form a mucilaginous sheet over the original layer of bacteria-encrusted sand. |
|
| Chemically defined media were needed for the cultivation of heterotrophs by defining nutritional requirements. |
|
| Metabolic energy is made available from the oxidation of these electron donors in basically the same way as that used by respiring heterotrophs, which transfer electrons from an organic molecule to oxygen. |
|
| Fungi in the phylum Chytridiomycota have a nearly global distribution and occupy roles as heterotrophs and saprobes in water and soil. |
|
| Antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Staph aureus and heterotrophs were among the bacteria found on the cuffs. |
|
|
|
| Being animals, invertebrates are heterotrophs, and require sustenance in the form of the consumption of other organisms. |
|
| About half of living dinoflagellate species are autotrophs possessing chloroplasts and half are nonphotosynthesising heterotrophs. |
|
| The fungi are traditionally considered heterotrophs, organisms that rely solely on carbon fixed by other organisms for metabolism. |
|
| A few, however, are obligate heterotrophs, while others can live heterotrophically in the absence of light, provided an appropriate organic carbon source is available. |
|
| A living thing using only inorganic materials as food, as opposed to heterotrophs, allotrophs, parasites, or saprophytes, which depend on other organisms for nutrition. |
|
| Heterotrophs are organisms, including bacteria, yeasts and molds, that can be harmful to health. |
|
| Heterotrophs, on the other hand, do not create their own food but rely on consuming other external foods to provide the energy to sustain their own life processes. |
