Question
What is the difference between autotrophic nutrition and heterotrophic nutrition?
✓
Answer
Autotrophic Nutrition: It is that mode of nutrition in which an organism makes its own food from the simple inorganic materials like carbon dioxide and water present in the surroundings (with the help of sunlight energy)Example: Green Plants
Heterotrophic Nutrition: It is that mode of nutrition in which an organism cannot make its own food from simple inorganic materials like carbon dioxide and water, and depends on other organisms for its food.
Example: Animals.

Take two coils of about 50 turns. Insert them over a non-conducting cylindrical roll, as shown in the following figure (thick paper roll can be used). Connect coil 1 to a battery with a plug key. Connect coil 2 to a galvanometer. Plug the key and observe the deflection in the galvanometer. Unplug the key and again observe the deflection. (HOTS)
(i) What do you observe when you switch on the current in coil 1, i.e. when you connect coil 1 to the battery?
(ii) What do you observe when current in coil 1 reaches a steady value or zero?
(iii) Why is current induced in coil 2 when we connect coil 1 to a battery?
