When analyzing a microscopic model of a freshwater ecosystem, one heterotroph you are likely to encounter is arthropods. Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot produce their own food and rely on consuming other organisms, and arthropods, such as small aquatic insects and crustaceans, fit this category.
