because it makes its own food and chlorophyll makes it green

-~-

All plants make their own food through photosynthesis. they take in the sun's sunlight and makes it into their own food. The chlorophyll in the plant makes that green color (if you scrape a green plant with your nail, then some of the chlorophyll comes off. it's mushy stuff that feels funny.)
