Answer: B. Light energy - Chemical energy

Step-by-step explanation:

Algae is a food producer because it uses the process of photosynthesis to synthesize the organic glucose from the inorganic molecules of carbon dioxide and water.

It does this in the presence of sunlight which gives energy to the reaction by being converted from light energy to chemical energy in the cells of the algae.
