Autotrophic are plants and algae they are called producers in the food chain.

-quote-

"Autotrophs are the producers in a food chain, such as plants on land or algae in water. Bacteria which derive energy from oxidizing inorganic compounds (such as hydrogen sulfide, ammonium and ferrous iron) are chemoautotrophs, and include the lithotrophs."
