Answer 1

Answer: (A)

(A) and (D)

All green plants can prepare their own food by the process called photosynthesis. Photosynthesis takes in the carbon dioxide produced by all breathing organisms and reintroduces oxygen into the atmosphere. Photosynthesis is the process used by plants, algae, and certain bacteria to harness energy from sunlight and turn it into chemical energy used by animals (heterotrophs).

So, the correct answer is option A.
