Answer: Holozoic nutrition is the mode of nutrition in which organisms ingest food particles. They have well developed digestive systems that obtain energy and organic building blocks through internal processing of food. Nutrition in amoeba takes is an example of this heterotrophic nutrition. Holozoic nutrition takes place through the following steps-
- Ingestion
- Digestion
- Absorption
- Assimilation
- Egestion
Holophytic nutrition is the mode of nutrition that takes place generally in plants. They obtain energy and organic building blocks through the process of photosynthesis. They are autotrophic plants and require sunlight as they do not have a digestive system.
