What do plants take from animals?

Plants and animals have a synergistic existence, meaning that they benefit from each other in their survival. When animals breathe in air, their bodies remove the air's oxygen and use it for fuel. When they breathe out, they breathe out carbon dioxide. Plants love carbon dioxide. They take it and convert it back to oxygen which they then disperse into the air for animals to breathe. Your answer is "carbon dioxide".
