The scientist Konstantin Mereschkowsky knew in the early 1900s that plants make their own food by using sunlight. He also saw tiny parts in plants called chloroplasts that do not appear in any animals. He hypothesized that chloroplasts are what help plants make food. After many more observations of all types of plants and animals, scientists are convinced today that chloroplasts make food for plants.
