Photosynthesis
Photsynthesis is the process in which plants use chlorophyll to make food.
Plants make their own food by the photosynthesis process. Plants convert sunlight into glucose, or sugar, the food of plants. This happens in the chlorophyll of leaves.
Plants make food by a process known as photosynthesis using sunlight, chlorophyll (green pigment in leaves) and water.
A1: No plants contain chlorophyll in order to make food. Not all plants contain chlorophyll. Plants which contain chlorophyll, contain it in order to breathe. A2: plants do use it to breathe but plants also use it to help them make food.
Some plants make their own food through a different process called chemosynthesis. Through this process they use chemical compounds in the ground and/or other places to covert them into energy and make food. The plants get chlorophyll through photosynthesis and chemosynthesis.

The leaves are the organs that help green plants to make food. Leaves contain chlorophyll which is used in the process of photosynthesis.
Only photosynthesising plants need to produce chlorophyll, because they feed autotrophically i.e. they make their own food, and chlorophyll is used to make plants' food. Animals don't make their own food so have no need for chlorophyll.
Plants make chlorophyll through a process called photosynthesis. They take in carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight and use these ingredients to produce glucose. Chlorophyll is produced as a byproduct of this process and is what gives plants their green color.
chlorophyll
Chlorophyll is vital for photosynthesis, which allows plants to absorb energy from light. Chlorophyll molecules are arranged in and around photosystems that are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
All plants contain chlorophyll a, b, c, or d which are pigments that absorb specific types of light. For example, chlorophyll a reflects blue green lights, while chlorophyll b reflects yellow green light.
Green plants need sunlight, water, carbon dioxide, and chlorophyll to make their own food through photosynthesis. Sunlight provides energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, a process facilitated by chlorophyll, which gives plants their green color.
