I would call that obligate mutualism. The microbes would be the normal flora of the plant/animal. Like rhizomes on plant roots that fix nitrogen or the E. coli in your intestine making vitamin K. symbiotics I'm not sure if this question is a typo, but an "organism" is an individual form of life, such as a plant, animal, bacterium, protist, or fungus. It is a body made up of organs, organelles, or other parts that work together to carry on the various processes of life.

Is it possible for us to survive without plants and animals.?
We eat plants and animals. The animals we eat have to eat plants. So, it is safe to say that without them we would starve.In the food chain - plants are at the very bottom of the hierarchy. Plants are believed to feed from the nutrients found in the biological matter (humus) in soil. Animals eat the plants, and so consume the stored nutrients.Since we are animals - some people believe we can simply consume only the plants and live healthy lives. People doing this are called Vegans. Other people believe that we do not need to eat animal flesh (meat) but do require certain elements of our diet from animals, such as eggs from chickens or milk from cows. These people are named Vegetarians.In the animal kingdom, species that eat only plants are called herbivores. Animals that eat only meat of other animals are called carnivores. Animals that eat both plants and meat are called omnivores.
