plants use carbon dioxide, which they get from their leaves and water, from the roots and sunlight which they get from the sun in order to photosynthesize. The process of photosynthesizing is when the plant uses its chlorophyll(that is what makes plants green) to change water, sunlight and carbon dioxide to turn into glucose, which it uses for the 7 life processes and turns it into starch.

Yes, leaves do not have to be green to photosynthesize and make food.

Other pigments that can photosynthesize include cartenoids and phycobilins, and non-green leaves that photosynthesize range from brown and red seaweeds to red or yellow lichens and purple-leaved plum trees.
