Why are proteins more common in foods that come from animals than from plants?
JeromeBouramia
The main source of proteins in animals is in their muscles. Those include the muscles that move bones, the heart and all hollow organs. This is not true for plants. Most of their proteins are found in enzymes and structural proteins in their walls.

Why would life be impossibleon earth in the absence of photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is the root source of all foods on Earth. Amongst all organisms inhabiting Earth, plants are the only ones which are able to produce their own foods through photosynthesis. Without photosynthesis, plants would die as they can't produce foods for themselves. When plants die, animals that eat plants will also die as they lose their food source. Subsequently, other animals which eat these plant-eating animals will also die as they, too, lose their food source. Eventually, every organism will die from starvation.
