Producers.
At the base of all ecological pyramids are producers, such as plants or algae, which convert sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. Producers form the foundation of the food chain by providing energy for all other organisms in the ecosystem.
Producer organisms are at the base of all ecological pyramids. They are the only organisms which can make their own food (autotrophs). The overwhelming majority of them are green plants and single celled organisms which photosynthesise, though a few are chemautotrophs, that is they get energy from inorganic materials.
There are various types of pyramids, including regular pyramids (with a regular polygon as the base and congruent isosceles triangles as the faces), right pyramids (with the apex directly above the center of the base), and oblique pyramids (where the apex is not directly above the center of the base). Pyramids can also be classified based on the shape of their base, such as square pyramids, triangular pyramids, pentagonal pyramids, etc.
Ecological pyramids can be based on the numbers of individual organisms at each trophic level, as well as the biomass, energy, or productivity within each level. These pyramids illustrate the flow of energy and matter through an ecosystem, with each tier representing a different trophic level. They help visualize the structure of an ecosystem and the relationship between producers, consumers, and decomposers.
Ecological pyramids show the relative amount of energy or biomass stored at each trophic level in a food web. They illustrate the decrease in energy or biomass as it moves up the trophic levels due to inefficiencies in energy transfer.

The ultimate source of energy for all ecological pyramids is the sun. Solar energy is captured by plants through photosynthesis, which is then transferred through the food chain to other organisms in the ecosystem. This energy flow is what sustains life in an ecosystem.

Autotrophs occupy the lowest level of ecological pyramids because they are the primary producers that convert energy from the sun into organic compounds through photosynthesis. They form the base of the food chain, providing energy for all other organisms in the ecosystem. Due to the laws of thermodynamics, organisms higher up in the pyramid must consume more energy than they produce, leading to a decrease in biomass at each trophic level.
