Solution

(c) T₁

Plants are commonly called producers as they produce food. They occupy the T₁ level which means they are at the bottom of the trophic levels. As they get energy directly from the sun, they have the maximum energy. This energy keeps on reducing as it is passed on to the next trophic levels.
