What are organisms that consume other organisms for energy called?

  1. Omnivores

  2. Herbivores

  3. Carnivores

  4. Autotrophs

The correct answer is: Carnivores

Organisms that consume other organisms for energy are called carnivores. This is because they primarily feed on animal tissue, unlike herbivores (which feed on plants), omnivores (which feed on both plant and animal material), and autotrophs (which produce their own food through photosynthesis). While all four options may consume other organisms to some extent, carnivores are specifically known for their consumption of animal tissue as their main source of energy.
