The echidna does not rely on plants. Its diet is made up of termites and ants, and it uses its strong claws to dig into termite mounds, or underground into ants' nests, in order to find its food. It can live in the arid desert, or in bushland - wherever there are termites and ants.

How will you explain the line'' no organism is independent''?

No organism can exist without other organisms. Plants rely on bacteria, fungi, and invertebrates in the soil to make nutrients available to them. The soil organisms rely on the plants to provide food for them. The animals that eat the plants, the herbivores, rely on the plants for food, and thus they also rely on the soil organisms. The soil organisms and the plants benefit from the herbivores because they provide additional fertilizer for the soil in the form of manure. Most plants rely on pollinators to help them make seeds, and the pollinators rely on those plants for food. Carnivores rely on all of the above organisms so that they have herbivores to eat. Without the carnivores, the herbivore population would get out of control, and the plants would be overeaten. Without the herbivores, the plants would overpopulate and alter the balance of the ecosystem in a harmful way."No organism is independent" refers to the food chain. It means that every organism is dependent on some other organism for its life. Only plants are somewhat independent as they are only dependent on sun to make food.
