The source of energy for Producers is light. Which comes from the sun.
However I am not sure what the source of energy is for consumers. If I were to guess it would be chemical energy coming from the animals that they eat.

What are the four levels in an energy pyramid?
energy source(sun)>producer(grass)>primary consumer(mouse)>secondary consumer(snake)> tertiary(hawk)>decomposer(fungi) All organisms die and get broken down by decomposers
What is the beginning source of energy in a community?
The sun. Because the plants (producers) absorb the suns energy light so they can make food for the animals (consumers) and it is then a cycle of nature. simple as that
How much energy is transfered between consumers and producers?
Only about 10% of the energy from the producer is passed on to the consumer.
Do consumers have the greatest amount of energy in an ecosystem?
No, producers, such as plants, which make the energy, do, as you should know, energy "burns" when transfered, so some of it "dissapears" No, producers, such as plants, which make the energy, do, as you should know, energy "burns" when transfered, so some of it "dissapears"
Does all of producers energy go to consumers?
Yes, it starts with the producers - plants, then to the primary consumers - herbivores and omnivores, then to the carnivores then to the decomposers, which breaks down dead bodies into nutrients essential for plant growth.
How do producers and consumers use their energy?
Consumers mainly obtain energy from the food that they eat. This means that their source of energy will be from the producers.
Why is the sun important to both producers and consumers?
producers make energy from the sun and then consumers eat the producers, ex: a plant (producer) uses photosynthesis and the sun to make energy then a bunny (consumer) eats the plant for energy. so the sun is the source of energy
What common characteristics do all consumers share?
Their primary energy source is derived from producers.
Where do producers consumers an decomposers obtain energy?
The energy in the producers comes from the sun. It feeds the consumers. The decomposers ultimately release the energy from the consumers and the producers that were not consumed.
How producers consumers and decomposers obtain energy?
producers obtain energy from water and sunlight, consumers obtain energy from producers and decomposers obtain energy from comsumers.
How do producers and consumers get their energy?
Producers and consumers exchange energy and matter in various ways. The producers are used as food for the consumers and the consumers are used as fertilizer and food for producers when they die.
Are producers a food source for consumers?
Yes. They are.
What is the role of producers consumers and decomposers in an ecosystem?
Producers capture energy and stores it in food. Consumers get their energy by eating other organisms. Decomposers decomposes the consumers, producers and waste materials to products that are again useful for producers. Thus, consumers do not actually have a role, while producers and decomposers do.
How can the producers help herbivores?
hen the producers make their ow food, they receive energy in which its consumers, herbivores, will gain when they eat the producer. Source- I'm a 6th Grader
Where do most producers get their source of energy from?
Producers get their energy from the sun.
What do Consumers obtain energy by eating what and other consumers?
THey obtain energy by eating consumers and producers.
How consumers acquire energy to live?
By eating producers or other consumers.
