What are 5 different types of heterotrophs, what do they eat, and give an example of an organism for each category.

Five different types of heterotrophs are carnivores, herbivores, omnivores, scavengers, and detritivores.

Carnivores eat the meat of other animals. Example: Bear

Herbivores eat vegetation. Example: Deer

Omnivores eat a combination of both meat and vegetation. Example: Humans

Scavengers eat things left behind by carnivores and herbivores. Example: Raccoon

Detritivores eat small bits of organic matter, such as soil. Example: Worms

Edit: If you'd rather substitute one of those for a decomposer, Decomposers break down dead or decaying organisms. Example: Mushroom, or fungi.
