efnaskiptinu
Efnaskiptin, also known as chemical exchange or autotrophism, refers to the process by which organisms synthesize organic compounds from inorganic sources. This is a fundamental biological process that forms the base of most food webs on Earth. Autotrophs are organisms that produce their own food, as opposed to heterotrophs, which must obtain energy by consuming other organisms.
There are two primary types of efnaskiptin: photosynthesis and chemosynthesis. Photosynthesis utilizes light energy, typically from
The organic molecules produced through efnaskiptin serve as the primary energy source for the autotrophs themselves.
