Solution

The correct option is B prepare food
Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants synthesise food (glucose) from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll and sunlight. Carbon dioxide is absorbed from the atmosphere and water is absorbed from soil by the roots. Plants release oxygen as the by-product during photosynthesis.
