Plants are autotrophic and produce "food" in the form of simple sugars through he process of photosynthesis.
Physically the process of photosynthesis requires: light (not necessarily sunlight), Carbon Dioxide and water - and releases oxygen as a byproduct.
While the plants still rely on external sources of nutrients (macro and micro elements) in order to perform other necessary metabolic functions.

Why animals and plants need food?
Plants and animals need food in order to survive. The nutrients the food gives off into the animal and plant keep its energy level up, and maintains the animal or plant. Himans as well need food, for the same reasons. That also goes for oxygen, water, and sunlight.
Why does a plant cell have on large vacuole?
In plant cells, large vacuoles are needed to store water. In animal cells, other things are stored in the vacuoles including food and waste, therefore there are many small vacuoles. The main reason plant's vacuoles are so big is to keep the plant from bursting. Plants can absorb too much water. Without the enlarged vacuole, the plant would burst.
What skills do lizards need in order to survive?
Like all animals they need: Food Shelter Water
Why do animals eat plant?
Plants are producers they trap sunlight and make it into sugars. Only plants can do this and therefore animals need to eat plants as food to get the energy that plants have made to live.
What would happen if a plant cell lost its chloroplast?
the plant would wither up and die because the plant's chloroplasts are the nutrient makers in a plant
What gas does a plant need to make food?
a plant requires CO2 to make food
What does a leaf need to make food for the plant?
For a leaf, or any plant, to make food, it needs to go through a process called photosynthesis. In order to photosyntesize, a plant needs sunlight, water, and soil.
What does a plant need to make its food?
water and sun
Why do animals have to eat food in plant don't?
Animals need to make energy in order for their muscles to work. Plants simply stay in one place and only need to make sugar from sunlight.
What does a plant need in order to produce its own food?
sunlight and water to photosynthisize
What does a plant need to make food during photosynthesis?
sunlight and water
What do trees need in order to make food?
Trees are plants, so it has plant cells that have chloroplast in them which turn sunlight into energy in a process called photosynthesis.
What does a plant need to make its own food?
It needs food, water, soil, nutrients, and light.
Why does grass need light?
Grass need light to do the process what we call photosynthesis. This is process is known as what plants do to make food for themselves. As the term shows, photo, meaning light, and synthesis meaning process. In order for a plant to make food, it needs light, water and air.
Which three things are needed by the plant in order to produce food?
Plants need water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight to make food. Plants use both soil and water to transport nutrients into their cells.
Do daffodils need plant food?
Daffodils do not need plant food. These are autotrophs and hence prepare their own food.
Why do animal cells need plant cells?
animal cells can't make their own food, plant cells can so animal cells need to eat plant cells
