Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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. These primary producers form the base of an ecosystem and fuel the next trophic levels.

Detailed explanation-2: -In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide which is taken in from the air by the leaf through stomata, and water which is absorbed by roots, is converted to glucose. Oxygen and water are released as by-products. The plant uses these sugars to produce cellulose.
