Are the synonyms for autotroph and heterotroph?

Autotroph: Producer, Heterotroph: Consumer

Explanation:

The term "autotroph" is nearly synonymous with producing organisms, or "producers". These organisms produce their own food using a photosynthetic process, effectively starting the energy pyramid by themselves.

(Hint: Autotroph - Automatically creating their own food/source of energy).

The term "heterotroph" is nearly synonymous with consumer organisms, or "consumers". These organisms consume other organisms as food, to absorb energy and carry out the process of their life.

(Hint: Heterotroph - Using different methods to find their food/source of energy).

Prokaryotic cells are smaller to facilitate the diffusion of ions and organic molecules that enter them to other cells. Thus, smaller cells do not need organelles and thus do not need to spend energy to obtain substances through the membranes of the organelles. However, larger cells need organelles to separate cellular processes, which allows the construction of more complex molecules.
