Answer:

grass----- rabbit----- fox

Step-by-step explanation:

A food chain always starts with a producer, which is an organism that makes food. This is usually a green plant, because plants can make their own food by photosynthesis. A food chain ends with a consumer, which is an animal that eats a plant or another animal.

Green plants are producers

They are the first link in all food chains

Plant cells contain chlorophyll and can photosynthesise

Photosynthesis produces glucose and oxygen

Animals are consumers

If they eat plants, they are the first-order consumers or herbivores

The chemical energy in the green plants is transferred to the animal when it eats the plant .
