Producers have the ability to make their own food using an energy source, like the sun. An example of this would be a plant.
Consumers are broken into two groups: primary and secondary.
Primary consumers are the herbivores that eat the producers.
Secondary consumers are the carnivores that eat the primary consumers.
Deer are herbivores and wolves are carnivores; they are both consumers.
So the main difference between producers and consumer are that producers make their own food and consumers can't. They eat producers and other consumers.

Mix the two together and you have an offspring with two different genes, or alleles, that are either going to be mixed or the plant will be one or the other color.
