Answer:

True

Explanation:

Producers are unique set of organisms that begins a food chain or web. They are not dependent on any other organism for energy source (autotrophs). This is because of their ability to capture light energy from sunlight and use it to power the process of making their own food called PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

Photosynthesis is a unique feature of all autotrophic organisms like plants, planktons etc. It involves the use of an inorganic source (CO2) to synthesize organic food in the presence of sunlight. Plants and other producers obtain energy directly from the sun, hence, they are called PRODUCERS because they start a food chain in an ecosystem. Other organisms called CONSUMERS rely on them for energy.

Explain why a pot plant will soon start to visit when it is kept in a sunny window sill.

allochka39001 [22]

Light through a window is not direct sunlight as some of the light is diffused and reflected as it passes through the window, reducing its intensity. Light through a window is the most direct form of light available indoors, but is usually at least 50% less intense than direct sunlight outdoors.

40,000 people were killed in what became known as the Reign of Napoleon.<br> a. True<br> b. False

storchak [24]

This is obviously false. When we're talking about the 40,000 people who were killed in around this time period, we're talking about the so-called "Reign of Terror" which occured BEFORE Napoleon took over. It happened close to the beginning of the French revolution.
