Answer:

The correct answer is option B. All take in energy to assemble energy-rich compounds.

Explanation:

One characteristic that distinguish primary producers from other organisms is that  all take in energy to assemble energy-rich compounds. Primary producers role in the ecosystem is to produce organic compounds from abiotic sources that they use as energy. These abiotic sources include the sunlight ( in the case of phototroph and photoautotroph), and carbon dioxide (chemolithotrophs).
