Answer:

Autotrophs

Explanation:

They are the producers in the ecosystem.

Autotrophs are organisms that produce food food from sunlight or from inorganic substances via chemical processes.

They obatin their energy by converting very simple materials into complex and useful organic compounds for use in the ecosystem. One of such process is photosynthesis in which green plants uses sunlight and carbondioxide to produce glucose for their nourishment. Another of such process is chemosynthesis.

Most heterotrophs(consumers) relies on this source of energy for their own survival and nourishment.

Why does darkness affect the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The correct answer would be Light independent reactions require the energy gathered in the thylakoids.

Photosynthesis can divided into two sub-processes or reactions:

Light-dependent reaction: It converts solar energy into chemical energy that is, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and NADPH with the help of photolysisis of water. It takes place in thyllakoid membrane of the chloroplast.

Light-independent reaction: It fixes carbon obtained from carbon dioxide into the food or glucose with the help of enzyme RuBisCO (Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase).

It takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast and does not require the involvement of light however, it requires the products (ATP and NADPH) of the light reaction.

Fixation of 1 molecule of glucose requires 6 molecules of carbon dioxide, 9 molecules of ATP and 6 molecules of NADPH.

So, darkness indirectly affects the light-independent reaction.
