Self-sustaining organisms like plants possess the ability to synthesize their own food using inorganic materials. Plants use water and carbon dioxide to begin this process in their green tissues.

Scientists are contributing to the general understanding of the strategies that plants employ to carry out this foundational step of the food web.
