Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at each answer choice:

A) Autotrophs are organisms that produce their own food. Yes, plants make their own food through photosynthesis, so A is correct.

B) Heterotrophs are organisms that rely on others for food. No, as plants make their own food, they do not seek others for sustenance, so B is incorrect.

C) Primary producers are organisms that convert sunlight into energy for other organisms. Yes, plants do this through photosynthesis, so C is correct.

D) Since A and C are both correct, D must be the right answer.

Hope this helps!
