Answer:

Autotrophs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some types of organisms that can use photosynthesis to produce glucose is known as autotrophic organisms. In the photosynthesis process these organisms use energy from the sun to convert CO2 from the air, and water from the soil into the nutrient known as glucose. Glucose is known as the type of sugar.

Autotrophs can be two types:

1) Photoautotrophs: They are using light as an energy source.

2) Chemoautotrophs: They are using electron donor from inorganic, and organic sources of energy.
