Plants play a crucial role in ecosystems as primary producers by converting sunlight into energy through photosynthesis, which creates food in the form of carbohydrates. This process forms the foundation of the food chain, providing essential nutrients for herbivores, which in turn support carnivores. Additionally, plants produce oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis, vital for the survival of most animals. Thus, the ability of plants to make food is fundamental to maintaining biodiversity and the balance of life on Earth.
The food making process is very important in plants. If plants don't make food then they will die. Animals and humans both eat plants.
Many animals need to eat plants to live. Other animals eat animals that eat plants. So the food that plants make is the source of life for all animal life.
Photosynthesis
Animals such as omnivores depend on plants 2 make food.
Plants need light to make food, we need light to see, and without plants animals wouldn't eat, without animals and plants we would die.
Plants are primary producers. They use the sun's energy to make food. Plants are the base of food energy in the world. Sun ----- plants ------- animals. Plants also use carbon dioxide from the air when they make food and the give out oxygen as a result of making food. All animals need oxygen to live.
Green plants use a process called photosynthesis to make food from sunlight. Only green plants can make their own food. Other plants (like mushrooms) and animals do not make their own food, but get nutrition from green plants (or dead green plants). Animals do not make food from sunlight. If they could, they would not need to eat.
People are "animals". Animals can not make their own food they have to eat other animals and or plants to survive. Plants can make their own food (from air, water and sunlight) - they are the basis of all food - without plants there could be no animals.

Animals do not have chlorophyll.
animals can't make their own food, plants and people can but animals can't
All animals need plants for survival because plants make food and oxygen. we all need oxygen to breathe and the plants I'm sure you know take the carbon dioxide in the air and make it into oxygen. and as for food some animals eat leaves and plants also make food like berries that we and animals eat too. :)
