Plants produce/manufacture (hence, factories) their own food from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll, a green pigment which absorbs light energy; is concentrated in the chloroplasts found in green stems, sepals and leaves to yield sugar (food) and oxygen. So it's the abundance of chlorophyll in leaves is what makes them the photosynthetic or food factories.
