Answer:

The answer is energy from the sun, cord grass

Step-by-step explanation:

All food chains start with a producer (plant life,) which get their energy from the sun.

It isn't cord grass, sunfish because sunfish are predators & don't eat cord grass. It isn't energy from sun, copepods because it's missing your producer. It isn't copepods, ocean sunfish because you are missing the producer.
