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.
Detailed explanation-2: -Green plants convert solar energy to chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis. This reaction is directly or indirectly responsible for nearly all life on earth. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide, a gas, is combined with water and solar energy, and converted to carbohydrates, a solid.
