Answer: Mustard Plants can prepare its own food as it is an "autotrophic organism".

Explanation: Any species which can prepare its own food living in the planet Earth is referred to as "Autotrophs". Most preferably organisms that are falling in the Plant Kingdom are capable of preparing its own food with the help of sunlight, nutrition that are observed from the water and soil, chlorophyll, Carbon dioxide, and other necessary chemicals.

The process using which the "autotrophs" prepare their own food is known as "Photosynthesis". Biological speaking chlorophyll and carbon dioxide plays a major role in autotrophic food preparation.

In addition to the autotrophic nutrition that the plant consumes for itself, it produces a good amount of nutrition rich seeds that are used by heterotrophic organisms like humans. Apart from mustard seed its leaves are also edible and more nutritious for us.

The mustard plant, like all plants, is capable of preparing its own food through a process called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use energy from sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (a type of sugar) and oxygen. The mustard plant has specialized structures called chloroplasts in its leaves that contain the photosynthetic pigments needed to capture sunlight and carry out photosynthesis.
