Solution

The correct option is C Trees
Trees are autotrophs or producers in an ecosystem and trap solar energy. The solar energy is converted into chemical energy, which is stored in seeds, fruits and other storage organs. Thus, producers like trees are the source of chemical energy for all the heterotrophic organisms. All the heterotrophs either directly or indirectly depend on the food, synthesized by producers like trees. These organisms directly cannot use solar energy.
