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.
If they have four offspring how many would you predict would have red leaves?
To predict how many offspring would have red leaves, we need to consider the genetics involved, specifically if the trait for red leaves is dominant or recessive. If red leaves are dominant and both parents have at least one red leaf allele, we could expect a majority of the offspring to exhibit the red leaf trait. If both parents are heterozygous for the trait, we might predict about 75% of the four offspring will have red leaves. Therefore, you could expect 2 to 3 offspring to have red leaves, depending on the specific genetic makeup of the parents.

Why does croton plant have red leaves?
The red leaves of the croton plant are due to the presence of pigments called anthocyanins.

Croton plants may develop red leaves as a protective mechanism to shield their leaves from excess sunlight or to regulate their internal temperature.
