Autotroph
Autotroph explained in an easy to understand way:
Imagine trying to make a home-cooked meal without having any ingredients in your pantry. This is similar to how plants, as autotrophs, create their own food using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide, without needing to shop for ingredients. Just as you might gather fresh vegetables from a garden to prepare a meal, plants harness sunlight through photosynthesis, turning raw materials available in their environment into energy-rich food, demonstrating self-sufficiency in both scenarios.
