plants
Plants make their own food using sunlight, like tiny green chefs!
Leaves mostly need sunlight to make food, using it to power photosynthesis, where sunlight, water, and air combine inside the leaf to create sugary food the plant uses to grow.
Moonlight is too dim to power photosynthesis, and darkness is the opposite of what leaves need, without light a plant cannot make food at all.
During photosynthesis plants also release oxygen as a byproduct, quietly helping refresh the air we breathe every day.
