Answer 1

Producers

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: D producer

Explanation: The answer has to do with trophic levels. As you probably know, the organisms at the base of the food chain are photosynthetic; plants on land and phytoplankton (algae) in the oceans. These organisms are called the producers, and they get their energy directly from sunlight and inorganic nutrients.
