Best Answer

Animals depend upon plants to produce oxygen (photosynthesis), to absorb carbon dioxide (plant respiration), and as a food source.

Even animals that eat other animals (carnivores) depend on plants as a food source, as that is likely what their prey eat to survive.

Plants depend upon animals from the carbon dioxide they produce by exhaling or other means. They need Carbon Dioxide to survive just as we need Oxygen to survive. Therefore, plants inhale carbon dioxide and exhale and/or produce oxygen just as we do the opposite (taking in oxygen and producing and/or exhaling carbon dioxide).
