The trophic level shows the energy transfer and biomass in an ecosystem that is energy is transferred from the lower trophic level to higher trophic level according to ten per cent rule.  

The organism present at the lower trophic level is usual autotrophs like plants and belong to category producers and at higher level eat lower trophic level organism and are called consumers.  

So, in the food chain at a lower level, we find producers but at a higher level, we find omnivores who can eat both herbivores and carnivores. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
