== == In a plant, the leaves contain many layers. The top layer is the waxy layer it prevents the leaf from losing too much water. The palisade cells contain alot of chloroplasts which contain a green substent called chlorophyll. The airholes allow gases to come in and out . The Spongy cells contain alot of air spaces. And finally the lower layer exchange gases through the stomata. The green substant in the chloroplasts are in the upper layer of the plant because it has the job to carture sunlight for photosynthesis. The roots down at the bottom absorbs water and nutrients in the soil. There are root hairs stuck to the roots. They are long and skinny this is becaus ethey have to provide a large surface area to absorb water. Once it absorbs all the water it was transport up the stem through a little tube called the xylem and then to the leaves. The chloroplasts carture the sunlight and the air holes allow gases to pass in and out, and the roots uptake the water. Now the plant can photosynthesise. They combine the carbon dioxide from the air with the water from the soil and the sunlight from the sun to make oxygen, glucose and energy. Carbon dioxide + Water = Oxygen + Glucose + energy. the oxygen which was made was wasted into the air. The food (glucose) that was made was transferred down the stem through a tube called pholoem and finally to the plant. The plant contain alot of water this is why it could stand up straight and the roots hold it in place. If there were no water in the plant it would go all floppy.

∙ 13y agoPlants need water and sunlight to make its own food. It is also good to give it decompose in its soil because it adds nutrients. Don't over water your plants or else they will die

Where do plants get the energy to make food?
Photosynthesis is the act of trapping the light energy from the sun and turning it into chemical energy in the molecule starch. The energy it traps comes from high energy photons.
The green chemical in plants which is needed to produce food is?
Chlorophyll found in the organelle called chloroplasts which are specific to producers(living things that make their own energy or "food").
What food do plants make for themselves?
Plants make glucose in the first instance. Most then convert this to starch for storage, but a few plants use other polysaccharides such as inulin.
Science fair How does no sunlight affect plants?
Plants use sunlight to make food through photosynthesis, with no sunlight, there is no food.

What are the 3 elements needed by the plants in making food?
a.sunlight b.water c.carbondioxide these are the 3 elements needed by the plants in order to make food.
When plants make their own food what type of gas is needed for this process?
Plants need carbon dioxide in order to make their own food.
Why do plants use chloroplast and photosynthesis?
plants make their food themselves.. That's why they are needed
What are 4 things needed for plants to make food?
water, heat, light, and food
Where does the energy needed by the plants to make food?
From the sun - in the form of sunlight.
What gas is needed by plants when they make food?
carbon dioxide dude. =)
What is needed by green plants to make food?
water, air, and sunlight.
What are the materials needed by plants to make food?
Plants need water and carbon dioxide to make their food. They also need sunlight and rich nutrients from the soil.
What is the reason for chloroplast needed for plants?
It is for make food. it is the photosynthesis.
What things are needed for green plants to make food?
water,sunlight.through which they make food.(using chlorophyll).
When Identify the materials needed by plants to make food?
water, carbon dioxide and sunlight.
What materials are needed plants to make food?
Sunlight Carbon dioxide Water Plants need air while making food but not oxygen. Plants only need oxygen at night.
