    Bacteria can be classified as heterotrophic, requiring complex organic substances for growth and energy. Heterotrophic bacteria obtain carbon and energy by oxidizing or fermenting organic substances. While all human bacteria are heterotrophic, their specific nutritional needs within this group can vary greatly.
