Answer;

Carbon dioxide, water and light energy;

Step-by-step explanation;

-Plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food. During photosynthesis, plants trap light energy with their leaves.

-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 by the process of cellular respiration and may also be used to make other substances like cellulose and starch.
