A
make their own food
B

C
make carbon dioxide
D
decompose dead organisms
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Producers, also known as autotrophs, make their own food. They make up the first level of every food chain. Autotrophs are usually plants or one-celled organisms. Nearly all autotrophs use a process called photosynthesis to create “food” (a nutrient called glucose) from sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water.

Detailed explanation-2: -Grass produces its own food through photosynthesis. It is a primary producer at the bottom of the food chain. Primary producers are the 1st trophic level. Grasshoppers are herbivores that eat grass.

Detailed explanation-3: -All food chains start with some type of autotroph (producer). For example, autotrophs such as grasses grow in the Rocky Mountains. Mule deer are herbivores (primary consumers), which feed on the autotrophic grasses.

Detailed explanation-4: -Organisms that consume the food prepared by producers are called consumers. Animals feed on plants and other animals. Due to various mode of nutrition animals are categorised into consumers, heterotrophs, saprophytes and parasites. No, animals cannot produce their own food.
