Autotrophs and Heterotrophs
Curious about modes of nutrition? Join the Amoeba Sisters in learning about autotrophs and heterotrophs. Video explains these terms as well as how their carbon source differs. Photoautotrophs, photoheterotrophs, chemoautotrophs, and chemoheterotrophs, and their energy sources, are also discussed!

When you learn much much more in 5 ~ 10 minutes than 50 ~ 60 minutes lessons. So sad..

Hi Amoeba Sisters! Would you mind making a video on how you make your videos, because you are both very talented in the field, as well as in teaching biology. It would just be really nice if we could understand how much work you actually put into your videos, and we fans can appreciate your videos even better.
I was shown one of your videos in class and now I'm subscribed to your channel and really enjoy your videos

You're channel is very helpful 🧡🤟
You guys are amazing! Thank u for teaching me about this subject!
From last year I started studying biology but,couldn't understand it but today I found your channel and from your video's it is much easier to understand biology . And my favorite ones is mitosis ones

Please Do a video on (1)Hashimoto’s when it attacks the thyroid as well (2)immune system disease and (3)inflammation throughout the whole body that that would be very helpful
can you please make a video on types of protists. its so confusing to understand all of them at once. thanks I love your videos.
Thank you for the help. Just some last minute studying
your videos are amizing
this is the cutest animation ever
Hi Amoeba Sisters I was just thinking about your videos that you uploaded few weeks ago. Do you add them to your Unlectured Series?? Like Diffusion

Really great video. I love the photoheterotrophs. They chew on carbon, but use light for a little extra energy boost.
Can you please made videos on enzyme, enzyme inhibition, regulation, types etc It will be very helpful
I would much rather watch your videos than Netflix! Please make more videos I love them. How about more Anatomy and Physiology videos?
hey i have a question where can i find a sea pig they look awesome and my favorite plant/growing tree is the apple tree out back
Thank you! I love your videos.(i also like Silky Bantum chickens)🙃
You should do a video on spectrophotometry
delightful and charming
you said that plants are “generally” heterotrophs, so do you know of any animals that are actually autotrophs? if you do it would mean a lot if you could share, thanks ^w^
@richeldalapera8119

No, every animal, no matter what they differ from each other, is a heterothroph, as long as they consume organic matter, when she described them "generally heterothrops", she meant that, they are often described as heterothrops when trying to describe an animal. I hope this helps!
I miss the old look and theme music ;-; It gave me Club Penguin vibes. But seriously, your videos get me through my science class. Thank you!!!
how do you pronunce chemolithautotroph like at 2:55?
Anyone know any channels for physics and chemistry ?
Nice video 😇

Hello, just wanted to say your videos help out a lot. when the textbook or other sources can be hard to understand, your videos clear up a a lot! so thank you!
Can you do a video on nucleus
You are so inteligent
Can u guys make a video about microfilament 😭😭please
You know what I already know this but I still like this anyways Shout our to Petunia and pinky for helping me with my science tests last year I really appreciate it
gracias chica
... Gotta admit, of all the videos I have in my feed I opened this one first because the silkie looks just like my PlaPlap 😅
when you say "organic matter", what do you mean?
Add some music just like nucleus media it makes watching more enjoyable and mesmerizing.
Hey amoeba sisters! I just want to say my homeschool I am in is called #Insirecharterschools and I have seen all of ur vids and I love them! They are helping me with my science class witch I was failing but not now! thanks!
wait a second...if organic means carbon-based, how come carbon dioxide is inorganic? Also, great video! I would appreciate it if you start a series where you go through short videos and lengthen them to give more detail, while still offering the short videos if people just want a summery.

Thnx
But still...is moss a heterotroph or an autotroph??? This question gets me every time!
Hello, I learned about those concepts quite recently. It makes me think that a heterotrophic way of living is quite bad. You have to value yourself over another organism to consume it. Aren't autothropH organism much more ethical?
Amoebas are my favorite organisms. so are flatworms :3

Hey guys, I just found out that carbon dioxide (CO2) is "organic", because I have read that organic matter contains one or more carbon atoms, and that inorganic matter doesn't. Can you please change it if I'm correct, or correct me instead if I'm wrong?
@AmoebaSisters

So you bring up something that we had learned could be a topic all in itself! Some definitions will say any substance with carbon is organic, whereas others (like our cited sources) *generally* require both carbon and hydrogen meaning some carbon containing substances (such as carbon dioxide) would be inorganic. However, even that definition has exceptions such as carbon tetrachloride which is generally considered organic but has no hydrogen. Long story short, there is a lot of debate about these terms---and it seems most of the definitions have exceptions. One example is just searching for "is carbon dioxide organic or inorganic" which will pull up all kinds of different justifications. We actually have the topic of "organic vs. inorganic substances" on a potential future video topic poll, because we think it'd make a great exploration.
Ahhh yes, Rapidash, my favourite animal.
amen
im using this video for class right now lol
