How do autotrophs and heterotrophs benefit one another within an ecosystem? a. autotrophs transform chemical energy into radiant energy for heterotrophs, which fix carbon for autotrophs. b. autotrophs produce oxygen and carbon dioxide for heterotrophs, which produce chemical energy for autotrophs. c. autotrophs fix carbon and produce oxygen for heterotrophs, which produce carbon dioxide for autotrophs. d. autotrophs synthesize atp and other nutrients for heterotrophs, which produce oxygen for autotrophs.

Correct C). Autotrophs fix carbon and produce oxygen for heterotrophs, which produce carbon dioxide for autotrophs.  

Autotrophs are those organisms, that are known to make their own food in the presence of sunlight. Example- Plants

Heterotrophs are those organisms that use the food that comes from the other organism in the form of fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. These organisms that feed on other are called as heterotrophs.

Example: Carnivores, omnivores etc

label a cell membrane

label b cytoplasm

label c ribosomes

label d dna

the membrane forms the outside of the cell

cytoplasm is the liquid within

ribosomes are the components within that distribute rna

the dna is the genetic make-up
