Organisms designated autotrophs obtain their energy from:


other producers.

dead consumers.

decomposers.

inorganic sources.

i think it's all of these.

nope. Look up autotroph.

thank you! it's inorganic sources.

Actually, autotrophs obtain their energy from inorganic sources. Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food using energy from non-living sources. They are also known as producers, because they produce organic compounds (such as glucose) through processes like photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. In photosynthesis, autotrophs use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. In chemosynthesis, autotrophs obtain energy by oxidizing inorganic compounds like hydrogen sulfide or ammonia.

While autotrophs can indirectly obtain energy from other producers (by consuming their own organic products), dead consumers (by decomposition), or decomposers (by breaking down organic matter), their primary energy source is inorganic, non-living material.
