Expert Solution

An organism is classified as heterotroph and autptroph based on the type of C. Carbon source it utilizes. heterophs are the organism which could not manufacture their own food by carbon fixation that's why they have to take nutrition from other resources of organic carbon .

Autptroph can produce their own food by fixing carbon .

Friedman and Rosenman (1974) classified people into two categories: Type A personalities and Type B personalities.  Type A's are hard-driving, competitive, and ambitious. Type B's are more relaxed, easy going people.  One factor that differentiates these two groups is the   chronically high level of frustration experienced by Type A's, especially when doing statistical analyses.  (Oftentimes Type A's have been known to suffer from numerical alexithymia.) To verify this aspect separate samples of Type A's and Type B's are obtained. The following frustration scores were...
