a food chain always starts with a green plant and the arrows show which way the energy travels. e.g- oak tree- catterpilar- blue tit but also, if you properly did a food chain it would start with the sun.
What is the herbivore in the following food chain: algae → fish → herons?
A primary producer would be located at the beginning of the food chain, serving as the foundation by converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. These organisms, such as plants and algae, are crucial for sustaining life in an ecosystem as they provide energy for consumers up the food chain.
Algae are microscopic organisms that grows in the water. Algae is eaten by fish or krill and other tiny creatures. In a food chain it would be considered a producer because it harnesses the sun's energy to create food that is consumed by other organisms.

decomposers.
A primary producer would be located at the beginning of the food chain, serving as the foundation by converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis. These organisms, such as plants and algae, are crucial for sustaining life in an ecosystem as they provide energy for consumers up the food chain.
Algae feed small fish which starts the food chain.
Every food chain necessarily begins with an organism that doesn't eat any other organism (if it did eat another organism, it would not be the beginning of the food chain) which is technically known as an autotroph. We are generally familiar with organisms that conduct photosynthesis, although that is not the only kind of autotroph; there are also bacteria which metabolize minerals coming from underwater vents, which live symbiotically in vent worms.

Algae form the main basis of the aquatic food chain.

fish eat algae and bigger fish like sharks eat the fish
