Detailed explanation-1: -An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals. Because autotrophs produce their own food, they are sometimes called producers. Plants are the most familiar type of autotroph, but there are many different kinds of autotrophic organisms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel.
Detailed explanation-3: -Plants and algae (plant-like organisms that live in water) are able to make their own food using energy from the sun. These organisms are called producers because they produce their own food. Some animals eat these producers. These animals are called consumers because they consume something else to get their food.
Detailed explanation-4: -Plants are called producers. This is because they produce their own food! They do this by using light energy from the Sun, carbon dioxide from the air and water from the soil to produce food-in the form of glucouse/sugar. The process is called photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-5: -Producers are living things that can make their own food using air, light, soil, and water. Plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food. Only plants can produce their own food. That’s why they are called producers.
