The chlorophyll in the leaves of plants, contained within special cells called chloroplasts, are used by the plant to photosynthesize. This is the process in which plants make their own food, using the energy from the sun to convert any CO2 and water absorbed into natural sugars, which is essentially the plant's "food." Chlorophyll is also what gives the leaves of plants their green pigment.
