Best Answer

Animals eat plants (of eat the animals that do). Animals can't make their own food from energy and simple compounds, and even if they could, animal energy use is too prodigious to support by photosynthesis of the organism itself. A 70 Kg human needs around 2,000 - 3,000 kilocalories a day; to make that requires several hundred Kg or plants and many days. It requires a field of really good grass the size of a Rugby pitch to keep one cow alive. Short answer: plants are vital; if they die, we die.

ALL animals either eat plants, or eat animals that eat plants. Without plants, there would be no life on earth. Plants also produce the oxygen used by animals.

Plants are the way we are able to survive. Without plants, all of the CO2 that we exhale would not be converted back to oxygen.
