Trophism
Phototrophs and chemotrophs comprise autotrophs, using energy to fix atmospheric carbon. Phototrophs utilize photic (light) energy, whereas chemotrophs instead attain energy through oxidization of inorganic compounds.
Non-autotrophic bacteria are termed heterotrophs, and obtain their carbon by feeding upon environmental organic compounds or living organisms (pathogens). Photoheterotrophs obtain energy from light, whereas chemoheterotrophs obtain energy through oxidization of inorganic compounds. Some chemoheterotrophs prey upon other organism (infection).
