Yes, all living things depend on non-living things. For example: - A plant requires sunlight, soil and water, all non-living things. - An animal requires a habitat, so rocks, dirt, etc. which are non-living things. Even if the animal did not depend on these things, it would still need to eat other animals or plants and plants need non-living things to survive.
