Green plants are autotrophs (producers).
They conduct photosynthesis.
Rabbits as well as other animals
are heterotrophs (consumers).
These organisms must consume

Photosynthesis occurs in the leaves. This is
when plants absorb carbon dioxide, water, and
solar energy to make oxygen gas and glucose
(sugar). The sugar is the plant’s “food”.
