Answer 1

A:Producers capture energy from the sun and

can make food, so they don't need other

organisms.

Only plants can produce their own food by using photosynthesis. The leaves that contain chlorophyll absorb light from the sun and absorb carbon dioxide in the air. They also absorb water too. Carbon dioxide + water gives glucose + oxygen. Glucose is used as food which is needed for things like respiration, growth and movement.
