The organism that can carry out both autotropic and heterotrophic modes of nutritions is
Chlamydomonas
Eudorina
Euglena
Spirogyra

Euglena use their chloroplasts to produce nutrients through photosynthesis. It is a dual organism as it can act both as an autotroph, making its own food, and heterotroph, feeding on other substances.
An example of osmosis in plants is the
movement of water through the xylem
loss of water vapour from the stomata
translocation of food through the phloem
absorption of water from the soil by the root
Correct answer is D
Osmosis is responsible for the ability of plant roots to draw water from the soil. Plants concentrate solutes in their root cells by active transport, and water enters the roots by osmosis.
