Plants make food in their leaves. The leaves contain a pigment calledchlorophyll, which colors the leaves green. Chlorophyll can make food theplant can use from carbon dioxide, water, nutrients, and energy from sunlight. This process is called photosynthesis.

2. light (either natural sunlight or artificial light, like from a light bulb)

3. carbon dioxide (CO2)(a gas found in the air; one of the gases people and animals breathe out when they exhale)

4. water (which the plant collects through its roots)
