Solution

The correct options are
A
Plants

B
Cyanobacteria

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants, some bacteria, and some protists use the energy from sunlight to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll. Plants and cyanobacteria contain the pigment chlorophyll. They can synthesise their own food and hence are called producers.
