Answer:

Autotrophs are known as producers because they are able to make their own food from raw materials and energy. Examples include plants, algae, and some types of bacteria. Heterotrophs are known as consumers because they consume producers or other consumers. Dogs, birds, fish, and humans are all examples of heterotrophs

Step-by-step explanation:

The animal which hunts and kills other animals for food, is called the predator and the attacked animal is called the prey
