Plants provide food and shelter for animals, and as they photosynthesize, regulate the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
As food producers, plants are eaten by herbivores, which in turn become food for the omnivores and carnivores. Plants are also the homes of many animals, small and big. Plants provide shelter from predators and harsh factors of the environment, like the hot sun, cold snow and torrential rain. When plants photosynthesize, they take in carbon dioxide and give out the fresh oxygen that all the animals need for respiration. Plants are crucial for the health of all animals.
On the other hand, plants depend on animals for nutrients, pollination and seed dispersal, and as the animals consume plants, they regulate the numbers of different species of plants. While plants provide oxygen for the animals as they photosynthesize, animals respire and give out carbon dioxide for plants to make food with. It is an interdependent relationship here. This is not to say that plants do not respire themselves. They do, it is just that the amount of carbon dioxide they give out is not enough for the plants to make enough food with. As such, plants need animals.
Also, when animals die, they decompose and become natural fertilizers for plants. Being pretty much immobile, plants also depend on animals to pollinate them for reproduction. And when the fertilized plants eventually produce seeds encased in fruits, animals eat them or carry them along on their fur, dispersing the seeds far and wide, ensuring the continuity of the plant species.
Angiosperms supply animals with fats and oils, proteins, carbohydrates and Vitamins. Each of these play an important role for animals. Fats provide the cushion, proteins help the muscles, carbohydrates help give energy and vitamins help heal the body.
Angiosperms are successful at reproduction due to their efficient means of pollen transfer by animals and wind, their ability to produce large quantities of seeds, and their diversity in flower structures that attract pollinators. These adaptations increase the likelihood of successful pollination and seed formation, leading to high reproductive success in angiosperms.
A group of plants that depend on animal vectors for fertilization is called zoophytes. These plants rely on animals, such as insects, birds, or bats, to assist in the transfer of pollen from the male reproductive organs to the female reproductive organs, thus enabling fertilization. Examples include many flowering plants and orchids.
yes animals depend on plants for shelter. The plants depend on a variety of animals for pollination, seed dispersal. Sunlight is needed by both plants as well as animals.
Angiosperms like Utricularia and Napenthes eat the insects.
Angiosperms depend on animals to pollinate their flowers and drop their seeds and make more plants.
Land animal depend on angiosperms for the fruit. At the same time angiosperms rely on animals to carry the fruit to another location to plant the seeds.
Most land animals depend on angiosperms for food, as they provide a source of fruits, seeds, and nectar. Additionally, angiosperms play a crucial role in providing habitat and shelter for many animals. Animals also rely on angiosperms for oxygen production and carbon dioxide absorption through the process of photosynthesis.
sunlight, soil, water, the temperature
Yes. Animals that eat other animals depend on herbivores for food, which in turn depend on plants.
One of the animals that depend on ocelot are bobcats
They depend on animals because
Angiosperms produce flowers, which contain reproductive structures called ovaries that develop into fruits containing seeds. Fruits serve as a means of seed dispersal by attracting animals to eat and spread the seeds.
Angiosperms supply animals with fats and oils, proteins, carbohydrates and Vitamins. Each of these play an important role for animals. Fats provide the cushion, proteins help the muscles, carbohydrates help give energy and vitamins help heal the body.
No, because the plants depend on the sun, the animals depend on the plants, we depend on both the animals and the plants. Der.
proteins, carbohydrates, fruits, and vegetables
One main difference is that gymnosperms typically rely on wind for pollination, while angiosperms often rely on animals like bees for pollination. Additionally, gymnosperms have exposed seeds, while angiosperms have seeds enclosed within a fruit. Finally, gymnosperms do not produce flowers, while angiosperms do.
