Solution
The correct option is D Capture solar energy
A food chain is series of plants/animals which are interrelated in the form of organism being eaten as food by the other. There are different types of food chain present in an ecosystem such as grazing, detritus, parasitic. Grazing food chain is a food chain in which the energy in the lowest trophic level is derived from photosynthesis. Hence, it directly depends on solar radiations. Plants are the producers which capture solar energy to synthesize food. In this, primary consumers depends on green plants and secondary consumers depends on primary consumers for food chain.Thus, the correct answer is 'Capture solar energy.'
