Answer:
The valuable organic molecules produced by autotrophs serve as sources of food for the heterotroph and supply the necessary nutrients living organisms need to grow and survive.
Without these valuable organic molecules living organisms can not survive , grow and develop.
The organic molecules serve as sources of energy needed to fuel biological processes in the organisms.
Explanation:
Autotrophs are group of organisms that can produce their own food through the process of photosynthesis where inorganic molecules are converted to organic molecules i.e they use light energy from the sun with water and carbondioxide to produce carbohydrates and oxygen.
Heterotrophs or other living organisms depend on autotrophs for the supply of organic matter as food nutrients and sources of energy needed for cellular or biologic processes.
