Solution
The correct option is C X- Grass, Y- Rabbit
X can be grass since it acts as a producer in the food chain which is the base of an ecological pyramid. Y could be a rabbit. It is the primary consumer in the food chain and feeds on grass. Thus it is at the second level in the pyramid of energy. The graph shows that X is not dependant on Y. Only the producers can make their own food, thus not dependent on any other organisms but Y is dependent on X and consumed it. Thus, the correct answer is option C.
