Question: 1 / 400

What process do plants use to make food?

Photosynthesis

Plants use a complex process known as photosynthesis to produce their own food. This process involves using energy from the sun and carbon dioxide from the air, along with water and nutrients from the soil, to create glucose (a type of sugar) and oxygen. This is why plants are known as producers, as they are able to convert energy from the sun into food. The other options listed are incorrect as they do not involve the production of food by plants. Respiration is the process of releasing energy from food, condensation is the process of water vapor turning into liquid, and transpiration is the process of plants releasing water vapor through their leaves.
