The right option is; D) It has high-energy phosphate bonds  

ATP contains a large amount of energy because it has high-energy phosphate bonds.

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an organic molecule that performs important roles as an energy transport molecule, a phosphate donor, and a signaling molecule within cells. ATP is made up of adenosine (an adenine ring and a ribose sugar), and three phosphate groups. ATP is an unstable molecule which hydrolyzes when it react with water to form ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate. The large amount of energy of ATP comes from the two high-energy phosphate bonds.

Answer:

Autotrophs are organisms that use light energy or energy stored in chemical compounds to make their own food.

1st order heterotrophs are organisms that eat only plants

2nd order heterotrophs are organisms that eat herbivores

3rd order heterotrophs: organisms that eat herbivores and other carnivores

Top group: carnivores

Explanation:

Producers are named as such because they produce their own food either by photosynthesis or chemosynthesis. These organisms are called autotrophs and include plants.

There are various levels of consumers. The first is first order heterotrophs, which feed on the producers. These are herbivores and include, for example, a deer feeding on grass.

The next is second order heterotrophs, which feed on the first order heterotrophs. E.g. an owl eating a mouse. These are carnivores

The next layer are also carnivores, third order heterotrophs which eat second order heterotrophs, for example a lion eating a zebra.
