Plants are producers.

Answer 2

Plants are PRODUCERS/autotrophs.....primary producers which convert the energy of sunlight by the process of photosynthesis to make organic compounds (sugars) which consumers than take in to survive and pass throughout the food chain.

Answer 3

hey hi plants are definitely consumers. They are referred to as primary consumers because they consume air, water and the solar energy from the sun.

They consume so that we they can perform the process of photosynthesis to form chroropyll.

Plants are then consumed by humans and other animals.

Answer 4

Plants are capable of producing their own energy and organic carbon making them producers.

Any creature incapable of using sunlight or inorganic energy source must rely on consuming those that can, making them consumers. They swallow their energy source and digest it internally.
