Plants belong to kingdom plantae and are multicellular and autotrophic eukaryotes. They can make their own food by the process of photosynthesis, as they contain chloroplast, which captures light energy to make glucose. Plants include gymnosperms, flowering plants, conifers, hornworts, mosses, green algae, liverworts, and mosses.
