A.) Extend the lines for sunlight so that they pass through the autotroph.
B.)Represent a chemical reaction in the autotroph that produces high-energy carbohydrates.
C.)Represent a chemical reaction in the autotroph that produces high-energy proteins.
D.)Draw a circle to represent a heterotroph, and draw a line to connect it to the autotroph.

Answer:

B, because logically, Photosynthesis takes sunlight (light energy), water(h20), and carbon dioxide( c02), and converts it into sugars (glucose / carbohydrates), and oxygen(o2). As D would be less necessary because humans and animals are not autotrophs and do not undergo photosynthesis to produce their own food. it is not the most necessary thing to label.
