In the image shown, what type of heterotrophic nutrition is shown?

• Holozoic Nutrition

• Parasitic Nutrition

• Saprophytic Nutrition

• None of the above

Which of the following species exhibits a mode of autotrophic nutrition?

• A grasshopper that feeds on plants

• A queen honey bee that is attracted to a pollen flower.

• A fungi sprout near a tree that is surrounded by dead leaves

• A pitcher plant that also feeds on insects that will be trapped in their leaf

Which of the following animals exhibits holozoic nutrition?

• Psychrophile organisms that like cold temperature

• An octopus that captures its prey through its arms

• A flower that pollinates

• A cobra lily plant that captures insects

Which of the following best describes a heterotroph?

• An organism that is dependent on another organism

• An organism that is independent of another organism

• An organism that shows that it can obtain its own food

• An organism that can survive without the other organism

The organism shown in the picture is a

• Autotroph

• Saprophyte

• Parasite

• Or ikaw

Why parasitic nutrition is one of the most disadvantaged types of modes of nutrition?

• The host gains more weight once a parasite is in the body

• The host and parasite both benefit from the presence of each other

• The host gets harm and health might be at risk once the parasites are inside the body
