38. Which kind of organism would be most likely to perform photosynthesis? A. omnivore B. herbivore C. decomposer D. autotroph E. carnivore

B?

OpenStudy (blues):

Herbivores eat plants - think rabbits. So the odds are against herbivores carrying on photosynthesis. The class of organisms who do carry on photosynthesis would be the ones who's name literally means "makes own food."

OpenStudy (anonymous):

none of those?

OpenStudy (blues):

I think one of the options is definitely the right answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^at blues......ok i dont know what an autotoph is.....wanna explain?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A clue: auto means "yourself" or on one's own. And troph refers to feeding.
