    • Green plants prepare carbohydrates, such as glucose, in the presence of sunlight.
    • Autotrophic nutrition is the mode of nutrition in which an organism prepares its own food.
    • Materials that provide nutrition to organisms are called nutrients.
    • Green plants and blue-green algae follow autotrophic nutrition.
    • Macronutrients, such as carbohydrates, proteins, and fats, are required in large amounts by organisms.
