• B. light
• C. energy
• D. water

Answer 1

The correct option is C

energy

A food chain is a series of relationships between members of an ecosystem so that energy can be transferred between them. Energy flow in an ecosystem starts from the sun which provides all the energy needed for life. The solar energy from the sun is captured by plants to produce their own food. The food produced by plants are consumed by herbivores. Herbivores are then consumed by carnivores. With these food interactions, energy is transferred to different organisms.
