What are three ways plants help the earth?
Well, one is that we breathe in Oxygen and breathe out Carbon Dioxide. Plants do the exact opposite. We need Oxygen to breathe, and plants breathe out Oxygen. That helps every living thing. Another is that plants help the food chain by events usually in this order: Plants make food-Bugs eat the plants-Birds eat the bugs-Less bugs mean more food for humans-We eat the food the plants make-We grow new plants. Thirdly, plants provide shelter and shade. They grow into trees which in turn can bear food. Hope this helped!
