Photosynthesis

Setting: Max is looking through a Dr. Seuss book named O Say Can You Seed. Needless to say the book goes into quite some detail discussing how seeds grow into plants and how they use the sun to create food for themselves. Individual parts of the seeds and plants are labeled in the book including embryo, stamen, etc.
Max has the book open to a page showing the sun shining down on a leaf with descriptions of how the plant uses the sun to generate food...
Max: "Mom, you've gotta see this. They don't use the word photosynthesis!"
