Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This organism is likely an autotroph because it is using abiotic environmental resources to assemble carbohydrates and proteins, which is characteristic of autotrophs. Heterotrophs, on the other hand, obtain their food by consuming other organisms. The answer cannot be C or D, as mammals are a specific group of organisms and being a mammal does not necessarily mean that the organism is an autotroph using abiotic resources for energy.
