Answer: I don't think that they are known as 'Autotroph'

Explanation: Encyclopedic entry. An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals. Because autotrophs produce their own food, they are sometimes called producers.

Answer:

Autotrophs are the producers in the food chain, meaning they create their own nutrients and energy
