Hello!
They are called producers because they're able to produce their own food by the process of photosyntessis.
This is the process of DNA replication :
Cells Can Replicate Their DNA Precisely. Replication is the process by which a double-stranded DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical DNA molecules. DNA replication is one of the most basic processes that occurs within a cell. ... To accomplish this, each strand of existing DNA acts as a template for replication.
hope this helps .
