      only telling us quantity and if transmittable [BUT] not what specifically something is----should not every living thing have a cycle: even viruses with simple function---eat--produce--sleep--repeat....so i am think just about the science which implies;real time genetics would be require over a massive study: to truly know: i get hypnosis is a thing as well as an inference...that is why i only would like to know: if you can and are willing to attempt an answer or maybe you know someone who knows:

      No, every animal, no matter what they differ from each other, is a heterothroph, as long as they consume organic matter, when she described them "generally heterothrops", she meant that, they are often described as heterothrops when trying to describe an animal. I hope this helps!

    Hey guys, I just found out that carbon dioxide (CO2) is "organic", because I have read that organic matter contains one or more carbon atoms, and that inorganic matter doesn't. Can you please change it if I'm correct, or correct me instead if I'm wrong?

      So you bring up something that we had learned could be a topic all in itself! Some definitions will say any substance with carbon is organic, whereas others (like our cited sources) *generally* require both carbon and hydrogen meaning some carbon containing substances (such as carbon dioxide) would be inorganic. However, even that definition has exceptions such as carbon tetrachloride which is generally considered organic but has no hydrogen. Long story short, there is a lot of debate about these terms---and it seems most of the definitions have exceptions. One example is just searching for "is carbon dioxide organic or inorganic" which will pull up all kinds of different justifications. We actually have the topic of "organic vs. inorganic substances" on a potential future video topic poll, because we think it'd make a great exploration.
