Yes, they are. They are autotrophs which means that they take up carbon from small, inorganic molecules, as opposed to heterotrophs (like animals) which take up carbon by consuming other organisms. All organisms need carbon to build up their own molecules. There are other autotrophs, too, but plants are the most important.
