Best Answer

Producers are organisms that make their own food through photosynthesis or other reactions and are a food source for other organisms (e.x. plants, extremophile benthos communities).

Consumers are organisms that ingest other organisms, like plants, in order to gain energy (e.x. herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, detrivores).
