autotrophic
B
heterotrophic
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -All animals are eukaryotic, multicellular organisms, and almost all animals have specialized tissues. Most animals are motile, at least during certain life stages. Animals require a source of food to grow and develop. All animals are heterotrophic, ingesting living or dead organic matter.

Detailed explanation-2: -Animaliaanimals All members of Animalia are multicellular, and all are heterotrophs (that is, they rely directly or indirectly on other organisms for their nourishment). Most ingest food and digest it in an internal cavity. Animal cells lack the rigid cell walls that characterize plant cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Animals are multicellular eukaryotes whose cells are bound together by collagen. Animals dominate human conceptions of life on Earth because of their size, diversity, abundance, and mobility. The presence of muscles and mobility is one of the primary characteristics of the animal kingdom.

Detailed explanation-4: -Animals are heterotrophic eukaryotic organisms which ingest food. They are distinguished from fungi which absorb food. Heterotrophs obtain energy by catabolising organic matter biosynthesised by other organisms.

Detailed explanation-5: -An organism that is eukaryotic, multicellular, and heterotrophic is a plant.
