Making Food Moving toward light Plants cannot travel from place to place the way animals can, but they are able to move their stems, roots, and leaves to get the sunlight and water they need for photosynthesis. Plants sense where there is water, and their roots grow toward it. The stems and leaves of plants grow toward the sun or light such as a lamp.
