Plants are so important to life on earth because without plants the animal kingdom couldn't survive.
Plants transform CO2 into oxygen which allows us to breathe
They also provide us with the food we need to eat. We eat fruit, veges etc. And cows, sheep etc. eat plants to get their energy. Then we eat beef and lamb to get energy from them.
Photosynthesis takes place wherever there plants, algae, or photosynthetic bacteria and sunlight. More than 50% of the total planetary photosynthesis is believed to take place in the oceans where there are massive numbers of photosynthetic plankton, algae and bacteria. Although land based plants are important, they do not do as much photosynthesis as the ocean-based organisms.
Sunlight warms the earth, provides light for us to see, and light so that plants and other photosynthetic organisms can use the energy to make food.
Photosynthetic organisms are the only organisms that make their own food using the suns energy. They are the basis of the majority of food chains. Without them primary consumers eg herbivores would have nothing to eat
Cyanobacteria is the most ancient group of organisms on this earth.
Photosynthetic bacteria produced oxygen, and as they continued to colonize the earth they produced more oxygen. Eventually all the oxygen sinks became saturated, and this resulted in the Great Oxygenation Event (GOE). Aerobic organisms would late evolve and utilize the free oxygen.
Yes, because all plants are photosynthetic, and the food chain starts with plants, so everything would die without plants.
the provide oxygen for living organisms

Photosynthetic cyanobacteria were the first organisms to produce oxygen. The effect of their oxygen production was that the earth became an environment which was suitable for life.
Because it is food producing process for all. Also it gives organisms Oxygen
Because there was almost no free oxygen for the plants to photosynthesize with.

Plants require carbon dioxide to complete the important process of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis requires six carbon dioxide molecules, six water molecules, and light in order to create one molecule of glucose, which provides essential energy for all live. Without carbon dioxide, photosynthesis would not occur, and there would be no life on the Earth.
Actually, plants as we know them today are not credited with generating the high levels of oxygen in Earth's atmosphere. This was created by photosynthetic algae that were using carbon dioxide as a nutrient source and releasing oxygen as a waste product.
because otherwise the plants wouldn't live and then we wouldn't be able to get any oxygen from the plants so then we will all be dead
