a to produce food and oxygen
b to support the plant
c to store water

Explanation:

Photosynthesis in plants uses light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose (food) and oxygen. Option B is incorrect as support is from structures like cell walls. Option C is wrong as water storage is not the main purpose of photosynthesis. Option D describes root functions, not photosynthesis. So the correct answer is A.
