Plants need green leaves to make food. Aplant needs sunlight and carbon dioxide (二氧化碳） from the air for making food and it also needs water and salts fromthe soil to make food too. There are certain cells (细胞) in the leaves which changecarbon dioxide and water into sugar . To do this the cells need energy, whichthey get from the sunlight.
Green leaves make food for the whole plant. A red leaf can make food too because under the red coloring of the leaf thereare food-making cells. There are no leaves which are completely yellow, forthey can‘t make food.
The plant makes sugar for its food. Insunlight green leaves make a lot of sugar. The veins (叶脉) can’t carry all this sugar away,so the leaves change the sugar into starch, which is kept and so stored in theleaves . At night , the starch (淀粉) change back to sugar. It is then carried away from the leaves .Some of the sugar is used as food by the plant while the rest is stored asstarch. In some plants, food is stored in the roots; in theirs it is stored inthe stem and in leaves, fruits and seeds.
