Autotrophs are organisms that can make their own food for the biosphere.

This term comes from the Greek terms:
Auto- meaning "self" and Troph- meaning "feeding or growth"
So autotroph quite literally means "to feed oneself". Autotrophs, for the most part, use photosynthesis from sunlight to produce their own sugars.
Plants are the primary autotrophs on Earth!

If the leaves of a geranium plant receive an adequate supply of raw materials, which graph shows how the rate of photosynthesis

Korolek [52]

I think the correct graph would have light intensity on the x-axis (because light intensity is the independent variable) and a measure of photosynthetic rate (either O2 evolution or CO2 consumption) on the y-axis (because the rate of photosynthesis is the dependent variable)... hope this helps
