The process of synthesis of food in green plants is called photosynthesis. This process takes place in the cells containing the green pigment chlorophyll. The raw materials for this process are water, carbon dioxide and sunlight. Water and minerals present in the soil are absorbed by the roots and transported to the leaves. Carbon dioxide from air is taken in through the stomata present on the leaf surface. During photosynthesis, chlorophyll containing cells of leaves, in the presence of sunlight, use carbon dioxide and water to synthesise carbohydrates.

Food making process in plants is called as photosynthesis and synthesized food is stored as carbohydrates (glucose as well as starch). Plants are known as photoautotrophs or photosynthetic organisms which means that they are able to synthesize their food directly from carbon dioxide and water using energy from light.
