No, humans are not autotrophs. Autotrophs are organisms that can produce their own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals. They are often associated with photosynthesis, a process used by plants and some bacteria to convert light energy into chemical energy.

Humans are heterotrophs, meaning they cannot synthesize their own food and must rely on other sources of nutrition, typically plants and animals. Heterotrophs consume organic matter to obtain the energy and nutrients they need for growth, development, and maintenance.
