Taxonomic group that contains multicellular organisms. Members of this group are autotrophic and non-motile. These organisms pla
y an essential role in all ecosystems as the primary producer of energy which they convert from sunlight into chemical energy stored in the bonds of glucose.
Plants are non-motile autotrophic organisms, they can synthesize chemical energy by using sunlight (trough a process named photosynthesis). Moreover, plants play a critical role in the ecosystems since these organisms produce oxygen when they photosynthesize.
