Eight farmers were talking about their cornfields. They each had different ideas about the food their corn needed to grow.
This is what they said:
Mrs. Farrin:
“My corn plants use sunlight as their
food."
Mrs. Tobias:
"My corn plants use food they get from
the soil."
Mr. Cullenberg: “My corn plants use sugar as their food."
Mr. King:
“My corn plants use food from the
fertilizer I give them."
Mrs. Joslyn:
“My corn plants use carbon dioxide and
water as their food."
Mr. Cody:
“My corn plants use food from the chlorophyll in their leaves."
Mr. Trask: “My corn plants use food from the ears of corn they produce."
Mrs. Ahlholm: “My corn plants don't use food; instead, they make food for
animals to eat."
