A
oxygen
B
sugar
C
salt
D
pepper
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Leaves perform photosynthesis using the solar energy to produce food in the form of glucose using carbon dioxide and water. Therefore, the simple food that is prepared by the leaves is called glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -During photosynthesis, leaves convert water and carbon dioxide to a kind of sugar called glucose. If that is so, all food stored by the plant should be sweet.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants use the energy of the sun to change water and carbon dioxide into a sugar called glucose. Glucose is used by plants for energy and to make other substances like cellulose and starch.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel.

Detailed explanation-5: -In contrast to humans and other animals, plants can produce glucose through a process known as photosynthesis. The green parts of plants use sunlight, water, and the gas carbon dioxide from the air to produce glucose and oxygen.
