Solution

The correct option is A Pond ecosystem
Ponds or lakes are natural stationary freshwater ecosystems. Producers include phytoplanktons, free-floating macrophytes, suspended macrophytes, floating anchored plants and emergent plants. Phytoplankton includes minute unicellular protists like diatoms, desmids and algae like Chlorella, Chlamydomonas, Spirogyra, Oedogonium and Zygnema. They are the most numerous photosynthetic organisms and are found only in aquatic ecosystems. Hence, the correct answer is option A.
