1 Classification of Marine Life & Habitats OCN 201 Biology Lecture 3 1 Classifying Marine Organisms by how they get their carbon Autotrophs - use CO 2 to make organics Who: All plants, some protista, bacteria, and archaea Can use sunlight (photo-) or chemical (chemo-) energy Heterotrophs - Need to consume organic compounds Who: everything that is not autotrophic Mixotrophs - They can do both! 2

2 Autotrophy (photosynthesis and chemosynthesis) Energy Autotrophic Cell 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O C 6 H 12 O O 2 Sugar Cells are more than sugar. Other compounds are built from simple sugars plus nutrients (Nitrogen, Phosphorous, & trace metals) 3 Respiration All living things respire..including plants! Energy heat chemical 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O Heterotrophic Cell C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 Waste Products Excretion Biomass Growth 4

3 Photosynthesis 6CO 2 Light + 6H 2 O Autotrophic Cell C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 5 Respiration 6CO 2 Energy + 6H 2 O heat chemical Autotrophic Cell C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 Biomass Growth 6
