Answer:

1. The energy source for producers, consumers, and decomposers is the sun. Producers like algae, and cyanobacteria use the energy from sunlight to make organic matter from carbon dioxide and water. This makes the start of energy flow through most food chains

2. Decomposers or saprotrophs recycle dead plants and animals into chemical nutrients like carbon and nitrogen that are released back into the soil, air, and water.

hope this helps !!! :)
