Answer:

An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals. Because autotrophs produce their own food, they are sometimes called producers.

1. Kelp Close-Up

Giant kelp, like this specimen growing in a kelp forest near Santa Catalina Island, California, is a type of seaweed. Seaweeds are algae. Algae, along with plants and some bacteria and fungi, are autotrophs. Autotrophs are the producers in the food chain, meaning they create their own nutrients and energy. Kelp, like most autotrophs, creates energy through a process called photosynthesis.

2. New Plants

Plants and other autotrophs are able to convert inorganic material, such as sunlight or oxygen, into nutrients. Plants like this one convert sunlight and carbon dioxide into the simple sugar glucose in a process called photosynthesis.

3.Algae Cells

In the cells of plants and green algae, like the ones above, photosynthesis creates nutrients for the organism to grow. Photosynthesis requires sunlight and carbon dioxide. Plants and green algae absorb sunlight using a green pigment called chlorophyll. This gives plants and green algae their green color.
