Vocabulary

at its most basic

Hi~

In the sentence below, I don't understand the meaing and grammatical function of "at its most basic." It seems that the phrase is used in common online but I can't understand it.
Is the word "basic" here a noun or an adjective?
If you have any idea about this and comment some, it would be a big help for me.
Thank you~!

The sentence is as follows:

To understand this behavior at its most basic, just look at how a toddler selects her food.
