The sun is the very first thing on a food chain.
Plants because many other organisms eat them.
Because they can't eat any other living things.

The organism at the start of the food chain is the smallest organism that the next smallest eats. So if you have to do a faood chain on fish, you would start with plankton, then shrimp, then mackeral, then sardines or such. At the top may be a shark, humans, or other meat eating animals normally.
you call it a producer(i am 10!)
a green plant, herivore and carnivore.
If you have a food chain then the chain must have a beginning (where the food is made) and an end (where the food is finally all used up). Thius in a food chain the "producers" of the food (the plants) are ALWAYS the start. The plants make food using CO2 from the air, Water from the ground and the energy they collect from Sunlight. It is the passing on of this energy from the Sun that is the chain.
no because they actually start with the plant which is a producer so no they dont .
Every food chain must start with a producer turning energy into food. You cannot have a food chain until food has been produced. This is usually done by plants with chlorophyll, using the rays of the sun for energy. Once the food has been produced, then you can have a food chain. You can list the consumers who eat the plants and then the ones who eat the plant eaters and then the ones who eat the meat eaters.
Every part of the ecosystem is important because they each have to rely on each other to live: If there are no plants the food chain would never start.
