all animals depends upon plants directly or indirectly for food and oxygen

<><><>

Above is correct. Carnivores eat other animals- which eat plants. No plants, no food animals, no carnivores. No plants, no oxygen, no carnivores.

How could carnivores die out if an ecosystem does not have enough plants?

Carnivores live by hunting herbivores. If an ecosystem does not have enough plants to feed a population of herbivores there will not be enough herbivores to feed a population of carnivores and so they will die out.


What is photosynthesis and what does it has to do with the food web?

Photosynthesis is when plants use sunlight to create sugars in their chloroplasts. The sugars are plants' 'food' so without photosynthesis herbivores/omnivores could not eat, and without those, carnivores coul not eat. :)

Why did the dinosaurs on earth disappear?

A giant meteor crashed onto earth coming from space and had a huge eruption, then it caused lots of dust that coverd the sun, so no plants could grow, so the herbivores died and some carnivores ate them and some rot, then the carnivores didn't have and food and they died. That was the end of the age of the dinoaurs.


Are orcas carnivores herbivores or omnivores?

A killer whale is a carnivore. They are some of the largest predatory carnivores to roam the seasMy best guess is that Killer Whales (AKA: Orcas) are carnivores, as they feast on seals, penguins, and even other whales. They could be omnivores, but I'm pretty sure they're carnivores.


Can there ever be more carnivores than herbivores in an ecosystem?

I think there are supposed to be an equal amount as well as plants the herbivores eat. This is to maintain an equilibrium so no side makes the other extinct. I think this holds true to the point of an outside factor. Weather killing a large amount of plants could affect an ecosystem by having a lack of food for the herbivores. They may die off leaving little to no food for the carnivores. I think it's all about equilibrium so there should not be more carnivores than herbivores and vice versa.


Could life life on the Earth survive without the sun?

No, plants cannot survive without sunlight, herbivores cannot survive without plants, and I don't think carnivores and omnivores can survive without herbivores. Besides, they would all freeze to death within a few days anyway.
