Yes.. water (H2O) and carbon dioxide in the air (CO2) plus photons of light. The process is called "photosynthesis" and is conducted in green plants by small "organelle" called "chloroplasts" which exist in plant cells and give them their green color.

What nutrients give carbon dioxide and sugar to plants?

Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the air around them. They make sugar themselves from carbon dioxide, water and light (in a process called photosynthesis.


What is a fact about a plant?

1 fact about a plant is that they use photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is how the plants make sugar from air, water, sunlight, etc.


Do plants need sugar in fertilizers?

No, plants can make their own sugars by photosynthesis. The purpose of fertilizers is to provide elements such as nitrogen which the plant cannot take in from air or water.


What do plants make with sunlight air and water?

they make sugar and give off carbon dioxide :)


Plants make sugar by?

Plants make sugar by photosynthesis. Most plants make there own sugar from sunight, air and material absorbed from the ground by the roots. The sugar is used to help the plant grow and flourish. We extract the sugar from the plants for our own use. Examples are common cane sugar from the sugar cane plant, beet sugar from beets, wheat sugar (dextrose), and from corn we get corn sweeteners.


Does a plants food come from the soil and the sun?

The food (which plants make) comes form water (taken form the ground) and Carbon Dioxide (taken from the air). The Water and Carbon Dioxide are joined together by the plant using the energy from Sunlight to make a sugar called Glucose. This Glucose is the food for plants (and everything that eats plants).


What three ingredients do plants use to make sugar during photosynthesis?

Plants use carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight to make sugar during photosynthesis. Carbon dioxide is absorbed from the air, while water is taken up by the roots from the soil. Sunlight provides the energy needed to drive the process of photosynthesis.


Do plants need fresh air to grow?

they need fresh air to make colloraphyll, which is part of their process of living. if they do not have air, than they can not make natural sugar either.


What part uses sunlight air and water to make sugar?

The leaves


Liquids that plants need to make sugar?

Sugars are made of only Hydrogen, Oxygen and Carbon. The only liquid needed (at the ordinary temperatures at which plants live) is water. Carbon Dioxide is gathered from the air and combined with water (by photosynthesis) to produce sugars.


How do plants use up atmospheric carbon?

Plants use carbon dioxide, water and sunlight to convert it to sugar and a by-product is the air that we suck in.


Is Carbon used by plants to make sugar?

Yes, carbon is used by plants to make sugar. Carbon dioxide (CO2), is taken in by plants along with water (H2O) to make sugar. First, plants through photosynthesis transform water into hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O). the Hydrogen is then combined with CO2 to create C6H12O2, or other words called glucose. Glucose is a simple sugar that exists in plants. Apple trees for instance uses the glucose to make sweet apples for you! XD
