Insert data into mysql table from another table

Question

I want to insert data from table1 into table2 and my own data into table2 in one(the same) query, but it is not working. This is my query

$query='insert into table2(id,name) values("001",select first_name from table1 where table1.id="001")';

Please somebody should show me where I am going wrong with my query,I will be very much pleased.Thank you.

Answer 1

insert into table2 (id, name) 
select '001', first_name 
from table1 
where id = '001'

or you could just use the id since it is 001

insert into table2 (id, name) 
select id, first_name 
from table1 
where id = '001'

Answer 2

insert into table2(id,name) 
select "001",first_name from table1 where table1.id="001"

Answer 3

insert into table2 (id, name)
    select id, first_name from table1 where table1.id = '001';

^ why hardcode select '001'?
