Which of the food chain directly depends on solar radiations?
A
Predator
B
Grasses
C
Detritus
D
None of these
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A grazing food chain begins with producer, then moves to primary consumer and then to secondary consumer. Producer traps solar energy and uses it to synthesize organic compounds which are used by other organisms. Thus, a grazing food chain directly depends on solar energy.

Detailed explanation-2: -Herbivores-organisms that eat plants-occupy the second level.

Detailed explanation-3: -These organisms are called the producers, and they get their energy directly from sunlight and inorganic nutrients.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Sun’s energy is needed for plants to make food through a process called photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, green plants capture the Sun’s energy. They use it to make sugars from water and carbon dioxide. Plants are considered a producer in the food chain.

Detailed explanation-5: -The grazing food chain is a type of food chain in which energy at the lowest trophic level is acquired via photosynthesis. The grazing food chain begins with producers like green plants, who create their own food through the process of photosynthesis and later move from herbivores to carnivores.
