Overview of cycle between autotrophs and heterotrophs. A heterotroph (/ËhÉtÉrÉµtroÊf/ ; á¼ÏÎµÏÎ¿Ï heteros = another, different and ÏÏÎ¿ÏÎ® trophe = nutrition) is an organism that cannot fix carbon and uses organic carbon for growth.ost heterotrophs are chemoorganoheterotrophs (or simply organotrophs) who utilize organic compounds both as a carbon source and an energy source. The term heterotroph very often refers to chemoorganoheterotrophs.
Fumaric acid or trans-butenedioic acid is the chemical compound with the formula HO 2 CCH=CHCO 2 H. This white crystalline compound is one of two isomeric unsaturated dicarboxylic acids, the other being maleic acid.umaric acid has been used a food acidulant since 1946. It is approved for use as a food additive in the EU, USA and Australia and New Zealand. As a food additive, it is used as an acidity regulator and can be denoted by the E number E297.
Fulvic acid is a part of the humic structure in rich composting soil. It is an acid created in extremely small amounts by the action of millions of beneficial microbes, working on decaying plant matter in a soil environment with adequate oxygen. It is of low molecular weight and is biologically very active.
