No, a scorpion is not autotrophic. Scorpions are heterotrophic organisms, meaning they obtain their food by consuming other organisms. They primarily feed on insects and other small animals, using their pincers and venom to capture and subdue their prey. Autotrophic organisms, like plants, produce their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis, which scorpions do not do.
