directions: drag and drop each word to the correct place on the energy pyramid. autotrophs heterotrophs heterotrophs heterotrophs
In an energy pyramid, autotrophs form the base as they are primary producers that convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. Heterotrophs are consumers that rely on other organisms for energy. As you move up the pyramid, there are different levels of heterotrophs (primary, secondary, tertiary etc.). So autotrophs go at the bottom - most energy - rich level, and heterotrophs are placed above them in ascending order of trophic levels.
