From where organisms get energy and nutrients: Consumers

\r\n\r\n
\r\n

Many bacteria,  animals and human beings eat various kinds of plants or animals to get energy and nutrients. They are called consumers since they consume body or body part of other organisms.
\r\n
\r\nConsumers cannot use abiotic factors directly as the food materials and all organisms that are dependent up on other organisms for getting energy and nourishment are also known as Heterotrophs (hetero = others, troph = nourishment). Some of them use only plants as the food materials (Herbivores) while others eat other animals (Carnivore). In many ecosystems, you could see animals, which consume both plant materials as well as animals (Omnivores).
