Being a plant and having chlorophyll in its structures, cornis able to capture sunlight and converting it into chemical energy, through photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis is a process carried out by plants to produce their own food. The plant draws carbon dioxide from the air and energy from the sun. Through this process, the plant produces its own food consisting essentially of glucose.
Briefly, we can say that photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide, water and sunlight (in the form of heat) to produce organic compounds (glucose) and oxygen.
