Explanation:

Leaves are small solar-powered food factories. Through a process called photosynthesis they make their own food. Using only water, carbon dioxide and the Sun's energy, they produce glucose and oxygen. They form the basis of the global food chain.

Answer:

Leaves are called the food factories of plants. This is because the formation of complex sugars like glucose and components like cellulose are synthesized in the leaves. Also the intake of carbon dioxide(co2), breaking it into carbon(C) and oxygen(o2) and taking of hydrogen from water(h2o) or the moist air and finally releasing of o2 back into the atmosphere and keeping C6H12O6 for itself in the form of glucose is done by the leaves for the plant growth.
