Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals. Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that can be later released to fuel the organism's activities. This process is characteristic of autotrophs.
