Question

In a forest ecosystem, green plants are

• A. Primary producers
• B. Consumers
• C. Primary consumers
• D. Decomposers

Answer 1

The correct option is A Primary producers

Photosynthetic plants are the only producers that can produce food by using water and minerals from the soil, carbon dioxide from the air, and energy from sunlight in the presence of chlorophyll and other photosynthetic pigments in the photosynthetic regions such as leaves and young green tender stems. These organic compounds become the source for many other organisms within an ecosystem. Hence, the correct answer is option A.
