5. Chemoorganotroph

Solutions

Expert Solution

Option two is correct.Organisms that use CO2 as a sole source of carbon for growth are called autotrophs.

Phototroph - Organism that use radiant energy(light) are called phototrophs.

Chemoorganotrophs - Organism that use an organic form of carbon are called heterotrophs.

Prototroph - Prototrophic cells also referred 'Wild type' are self sufficient producers of required amino acids.

Auxotroph - They requires a particular additional nutrient to be on medium that they cannot produce.
