Explanation:

Heterotrophic nutrition is when organisms obtain food from other organisms. A tapeworm absorbing food in a human intestine, an eagle killing and eating a snake, and a mushroom decomposing a dead log are all examples of heterotrophy. An algal cell synthesizing food during photosynthesis is autotrophic as it makes its own food using sunlight, carbon - dioxide and water.

D. An algal cell synthesizes food during photosynthesis.
