Modes and types of nutrition: JAMB Biology Past Questions and Answers
What the JAMB syllabus covers in Modes and types of nutrition
Our summary: Making food versus getting it from other organisms, with holozoic, parasitic, saprophytic and carnivorous-plant examples.
- Modes of nutrition ((i) Autotrophic; (ii) Heterotrophic.)
- Types of nutrition
Objectives
- compare autotrophic and heterotrophic modes of nutrition.
- provide examples from both flowering and non-flowering plants.
- compare the photosynthetic and chemosynthetic modes of nutrition;
- differentiate the following examples of heterotrophic feeding: holozoic (sheep and man); parasitic (roundworm, tapeworm and Loranthus); saprophytic (Rhizopus and mushroom); carnivorous plants (sundew and bladderwort);
- determine their nutritional value.
