Autotrophs are organisms that go through photosynthesis and/or chemosynthesis to produce organic compounds necessary for survival (proteins, carbohydrates). They are typically producers in the food chain, and they can make their own food. I put a picture of a plant because plants are autotrophs. This plant uses sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make its food. Algae and moss are autotrophs as well.
