Question: The organisms that convert solar energy and raw materials into food are
Answer: producers.
Hypothesis: producers convert solar energy and raw materials into food
Supporting facts: sent1: if a living thing requires something then that something has a positive impact on that living thing sent2: green plants are a kind of producer sent3: photosynthesis is a kind of process sent4: crops are a kind of edible plant for eating sent5: to provide something means to be the source of that something sent6: where something comes from is a source of that something sent7: sunlight means solar energy sent8: nutrients are a source of energy for living things sent9: photosynthesis means producers / green plants convert from carbon dioxide and water and solar energy into carbohydrates and food and oxygen for themselves sent10: to produce means to provide sent11: solar power means solar energy sent12: if something is a raw material then that something comes directly from a source sent13: sunshine means sunlight sent14: a plant requires photosynthesis to grow / survive sent15: as the availability of sunlight decreases , the ability of producers to produce food decrease sent16: converting is similar to producing sent17: if a process converts something into something else then that something has the role of raw material in that process sent18: a required resource being low in availability has a negative impact on the something that requires that resource sent19: a plant absorbs carbon dioxide from the air to perform photosynthesis sent20: soil contains nutrients for plants sent21: green plants provide food for themselves / animals / consumers by performing photosynthesis sent22: producers pass materials they use through the food chain sent23: photosynthesizing means performing photosynthesis sent24: photosynthesis is a source of / makes food / energy for the plant by converting carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight into carbohydrates sent25: the photosynthetic life performs photosynthesis
Reasoning: [BECAUSE] if a process converts something into something else then that something has the role of raw material in that process [AND] photosynthesis is a kind of process [INFER] int1: if the photosynthesis process converts something into something else then that something has the role of raw material in the photosynthesis process [BECAUSE] int1 [AND] photosynthesis is a source of / makes food / energy for the plant by converting carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight into carbohydrates [INFER] int2: in the photosynthesis process carbon dioxide / water / sunlight has the role of raw material [BECAUSE] int2 [AND] photosynthesis means producers / green plants convert from carbon dioxide and water and solar energy into carbohydrates and food and oxygen for themselves [INFER] int3: photosynthesis means green plants convert solar energy and raw materials into food and oxygen [BECAUSE] int3 [AND] green plants provide food for themselves / animals / consumers by performing photosynthesis [INFER] int4: green plants convert solar energy and raw materials into food [BECAUSE] int4 [AND] green plants are a kind of producer [INFER] int5: producers convert solar energy and raw materials into food
