Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Ferns are a type of plant, therefore the way they obtain will be the same way as any other plant: by creating energy (ATP) during photosynthesis.

Flatworms cannot create their own energy, they're not autotrophic. Therefore, they must obtain energy by digesting any food they may find.

A. Ferns produce ATP during photosynthesis, while flatworms and people produce ATP during digestion.

(ATP is energy produced by an organism’s nutrient-absorption process.
Ferns are producers, meaning they produce ATP during photosynthesis,
flatworms are parasites, meaning they produce ATP during digestion from the nutrients they have stolen from another organism,
and humans are consumers, meaning they produce ATP during digestion the digestion of nutrients.)
