Question

What is an explanation of why producers are always found at the lowest trophic level? A) Producers are larger than consumers. B) Consumers are eaten by a variety of producers. C) Producers convert light energy into chemical energy. D) Producers are found in fewer numbers than consumers.

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Producers convert light energy into chemical energy.

Answer 2

C. Producers are able to use the sun to create their energy. Consumers have to eat something else to get their energy. For example, Grass is a producer as it uses sun light for nutrients. A rabbit (a consumer) eats the grass for its nutrients. A fox would then consume the rabbit, also making it a consumer.
