(a) Chlorophyll
(b) Water and minerals
(c) Carbon dioxide
(d) Sunlight
In the process of photosynthesis:
Plant take carbon-di oxide from the air and water from soil via their roots and with the help of chlorophyll present in their leaves or stem, they capture the energy of sun light and this energy is used in making food from carbon-di oxide and water.
