A
Trophic Level
B
Trophoc stage
C
Energy Level
D
Energy stage
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The trophic level of an organism is the position it occupies in a food web. A food chain is a succession of organisms that eat other organisms and may, in turn, be eaten themselves. The trophic level of an organism is the number of steps it is from the start of the chain.

Detailed explanation-2: -The position occupied by an organism in a food chain is known as its trophic level .

Detailed explanation-3: -Definition. Trophic level is the relative position of an entity in the food chain. It forms the feeding positions in a food web or chain. All food webs and chains have at least two or three trophic levels. An ecological pyramid depicts how energy and biomass decrease from lower to higher trophic levels.

Detailed explanation-4: -Producers make up the first trophic level. Producers, also known as autotrophs, make their own food and do not depend on any other organism for nutrition. Most autotrophs use a process called photosynthesis to create food (a nutrient called glucose) from sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water.

Detailed explanation-5: -Trophic position, sometimes called trophic level, are terms that refer to the position an organism occupies in the food web. For instance, a primary producer (anything that can make its own food) like algae or plants, would be at the base or beginning of a food web, having a trophic position of 1.
