Detailed Solution

Concept: The organisms that have the ability to produce their own food are called producers. They are autotrophic in nature. The organisms that cannot produce their own food and are dependent on others to fulfil their nutritional requirements are called consumers. They are heterotrophic in nature. The organisms that only eat grass, fruits and vegetables are called herbivores. The animals that eat meat are called carnivores. The organisms that eat both vegetables and meat are called omnivores.
