It's when your kidneys no longer have control over the excretion of wastes nor the volume of your blood (this is the extreme end of the scale, though you can have smaller scale kidney failure/dry kidney). This is a potentially very dangerous condition and, if necessary, patients may need to go on renal dialysis for it.
Plants are producers. Producers are living things that can make their own food using air, light, soil, and water. Plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food. Only plants can produce their own food.
Plants need several things to make their own food. They need: chlorophyll, a green pigment found in the leaves of plants (see the layer of chlorophyll in the cross-section of a leaf below) light (either natural sunlight or artificial light, like from a light bulb) carbon dioxide (CO2)(a gas found in the air; one of the gases people and animals breathe out when they exhale) water (which the plant collects through its roots) nutrients and minerals (which the plant collects from the soil through its roots)
