We get food from plants and animals. We know that green plants make their own food from non-living things-carbon dioxide, water and sunlight found in the environment. Green plants are known as producers. They prepare more food than they need, The extra food is stored in different parts of the plant.

We get the following food items from animals.

milk e.g we get from cows, buffalo, goats and camel. Milk is used to prepare milk products such as cheese ghee, curd and ice cream.

Eggs, e.g from hen, duck and quail.
