Yes, an autotroph is an organism that produces its own food using light energy. Plants take sun energy to produce sugar, making it an autotroph.
An organism that is not capable of making its own food must consume another organism for energy. They are termed heterotrophs.

The form of energy passed along from organism to organism in a food chain is chemical energy. This energy is derived from the organic compounds present in the food consumed by each organism.

chlorophyll
No, see as the unicellular organism digest the food it turns it into energy,
Light is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants and some other organisms convert light energy into chemical energy to make food. Without a constant supply of light, photosynthesis cannot occur and the organism will not be able to produce the energy it needs to survive.
Producers, such as plants and algae, are organisms in a food chain that can transform light energy into chemical bond energy through the process of photosynthesis. This energy is then passed on to consumers in the ecosystem when they consume the producers.
The path of energy in food from one organism to another is through consumption. When an organism eats another organism, it gains energy stored in the food it consumes. This energy is then used for various life processes such as growth, reproduction, and movement.
