Question

Which of the following organisms depend only on producers for energy?

O Diatoms
O Shrimp
O Amphipods
O Squid

Answer 1

Shrimp

Step-by-step explanation:

The shrimp only eat diatoms and dinoflagellates who get their energy from the sun, making them producers

Shrimp are still considered primary consumers even though they eat phytoplankton, which are a producer rather than a plant. This is because phytoplankton gets energy from the sun, not plants. You can read more in producers but this is primary consumers.
