The answer is B. American alligator

Explanation:

Energy Pyramid:

A type of ecological pyramid that describes the energy contained in each trophic level or stage of the food chain. This pyramid is basically a representation of the flow of energy from producers to the top consumer in the food chain. There is a successive decrease in each trophic levels from the bottom to the top. This means that the producers produce the most amount of energy for their daily needs e.g. 1000 kcal. This 1000 kcal will be reduced to only 1 kcal energy by the time it reaches the tertiary consumer or top consumer.

Trophic Levels:

According to the energy pyramid in the question, trophic levels and organisms they signify are as follows (from bottom to top):

Producers: Butterfly orchidPrimary Consumers: Southern leopard frog, grass carpSecondary Consumers: Raccoon, Great blue heron, eastern mud turtleTertiary Consumers: American alligator

The tertiary consumers secure the top of the food chain and they prey on the primary and secondary consumers. In this case, the american alligator is the top consumer as it feeds on reptiles, birds, fish and mammals.

Need this store of protein: 

The seed consists of three components: embryo, endosperm (sometimes perisperm), and seed-coat. Both endosperm and embryo are the products of double fertilization, whereas the seed-coat develops from the maternal, ovular tissues. The seed habit is a significant advancement in the evolution of higher plants.

Seed storage proteins provide a source of amino acids and reduced N necessary for germination and early growth of the seedling.
