Answer:

It's both.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say it is a heterotrophic organism since it can make its own food by photosynthesis using the chlorophyll(the green pigment) that makes them prepare food.

It has both animal and plant characteristics.

Autotrophic: Consume food.

Heterotrophic: Prepare food.

Euglenas are heterotrophic.
Hererophic (must consume food) and autotrophic (can make its own food).
