• Explain the difference between a producer and a
  consumer.
• Produces are organisms that can produce their
  own food. Producers include all green plants and
  some protists. Producers use the process of
  photosynthesis to produce food. Consumers are
  organisms that cannot photosynthesize to produce
  their own food. They must therefore get their
  food from eating producers or other consumers.
  Consumers include all animals some protists, and
  many fungi.
