LIFE SCIENCE

Detailed explanation-1: -Plants and algae are examples of producers. They are at the bottom of the food chain because they are eaten by other organisms, and they don’t need to eat for energy. Producers make their own food through the process of photosynthesis instead of eating organic matter. Sunlight is what plants use to make ATP.

Detailed explanation-2: -As you probably know, the organisms at the base of the food chain are photosynthetic; plants on land and phytoplankton (algae) in the oceans. These organisms are called the producers, and they get their energy directly from sunlight and inorganic nutrients.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants are producers. They make their own food, which creates energy for them to grow, reproduce and survive. Being able to make their own food makes them unique; they are the only living things on Earth that can make their own source of food energy.
