Does wheat make its own food?

Wheat, like all plants, is an autotroph. This means it obtains its food through photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create their own food in the form of sugars.

So, while wheat doesn't directly "make" food in the way we do, it uses the process of photosynthesis to produce the sugars it needs to grow and thrive.
