Are fruit a producer or consumer?

Fruits are producers. They produce their own food through the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to create glucose and oxygen. Glucose is a type of sugar that plants use for energy. Oxygen is a waste product of photosynthesis that is released into the atmosphere.

Fruits are the mature ovaries of flowering plants. They contain the seeds of the plant and are often used to attract animals to spread the seeds. Fruits can be eaten by animals, including humans, and are often used in jams, jellies, and other food products.
