Carbon (C) is an element
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is a compound
Hydrogen (H) is an element
Sodium Chloride (NaCl) is a compound
A good way to tell whether something is a compound or an element, is that in a compound there is a mixture of different elements. Like in Carbon Dioxide, the symbol is CO2. This shows the carbon (C) and oxygen (O) together. I hope i worded that well enough and this helps :)
Answer:
Primary producers are organisms that acquire their energy from sunlight and materials from nonliving sources. Algae, higher plants, and some bacteria and protists are important autotrophs in running waters. Heterotrophs obtain energy and materials by consuming living or dead organic matter.
In cellular respiration is the process of extracting energy in the form of ATP from the glucose in the food you eat. In stage one glucose is broken down in the cytoplasm of the cell in a process call glycolysis. In stage two the pyruvate molecules are transported into the mitochondria
