A food chain depicts the flow of energy from one organism to another. It starts with producers (organisms that make their own food, like plants), followed by consumers. In option B, Grass is a producer, the goat is a primary consumer (herbivore) that eats grass, and a human is a secondary or tertiary consumer (omnivore) that can eat the goat. This represents a valid sequence of energy transfer.
