The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question:** The question asks about organisms that produce organic compounds from inorganic substances using sunlight and chlorophyll. 2. **Identifying Key Terms:** - Organic compounds: These are compounds that contain carbon and are typically found in living organisms. - Inorganic substances: These are substances that do not contain carbon-hydrogen bonds, such as carbon dioxide and water. - Chlorophyll: This is a green pigment found in plants that is essential for photosynthesis. - Sunlight: This is the energy source that drives the process of photosynthesis. 3. **Photosynthesis Process:** - Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants, algae, and some bacteria convert light energy (from the sun) into chemical energy (in the form of glucose). - The general equation for photosynthesis is: \[ \text{6 CO}_2 + \text{6 H}_2\text{O} + \text{light energy} \rightarrow \text{C}_6\text{H}_{12}\text{O}_6 + \text{6 O}_2 \] - Here, carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose and oxygen in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll. 4. **Types of Organisms:** - **Decomposers:** Organisms that break down dead organic matter. - **Producers:** Organisms that can produce their own food through photosynthesis (e.g., plants). - **Herbivores:** Organisms that consume plants (producers). - **Carnivores:** Organisms that consume other animals. 5. **Conclusion:** Based on the definition and the process of photosynthesis, the organisms that make organic compounds from inorganic substances using sunlight and chlorophyll are called **producers**. Therefore, the correct answer is option number 2: **Producers**. ---
