Trophic level 1 consists of producers (like plants) that perform photosynthesis. The energy for photosynthesis comes from the Sun, as plants convert solar energy into chemical energy. ATP is an energy - carrying molecule within cells, not the source of energy for trophic level 1. Plants are the producers in trophic level 1, but they get their energy to produce food from the Sun. Chemical bonds store energy, but the initial energy input for trophic level 1 is from the Sun.
