Answered by GPT-5 mini AI
Primary producer (9th grade definition):
A primary producer is an organism that makes its own food using energy from sunlight (photosynthesis) or from chemicals (chemosynthesis). Examples are green plants, algae, and some bacteria. Primary producers form the base of food chains because they store energy that other organisms (consumers) eat and depend on.
