Sunlight is ultimately the source of all living things except for a few types of small organisms that live at the very bottom of the ocean were sunlight could not possibly reach them. The leaves on trees/plants are a necessity to a healthy plant as they soak up the sunlight, starting a process called Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process of converting sugar into glucose (glucose being the plants food).
