OPTION A: Autotroph needs chemical compounds from the environment. OPTION B: Cellular respiration is present in both heterotrophy and autotrophy, as both of them require energy in the form of ATP, which is formed by cellular respiration. OPTION C: Both have mitochondria in their cells, which generate energy for cells and work as the powerhouses of the cell. OPTION D: Autotrophs, but not heterotrophs, can nourish themselves beginning with CO2 and other inorganic nutrients.
