Why do animals eat plant?

Plants are producers they trap sunlight and make it into sugars. Only plants can do this and therefore animals need to eat plants as food to get the energy that plants have made to live.


Why do animals depend on plants?

Animals depend on plants for food, as they provide essential nutrients like carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Additionally, plants produce oxygen through photosynthesis, which animals need to breathe. Some animals also rely on plants for shelter and nesting materials.


Do animals have chlorophyll?

Only photosynthesising plants need to produce chlorophyll, because they feed autotrophically i.e. they make their own food, and chlorophyll is used to make plants' food. Animals don't make their own food so have no need for chlorophyll.


How do animals depend on the plants?

Animals depend on plants because plants are the primary producers of food. All the food available on earth is indirectly derived from plants. Plants are the only living beings that can convert inorganic molecules into important carbon compounds. It is these compounds that are further broken down inside the body of secondary and tertiary consumers to obtain energy. We term the sources of energy as food. Besides food, plants invariably purify the atmosphere by releasing oxygen- the indispensable component of respiration.


How do plants support animal life?

yes they do plants feed animals not only feed animals but help us live even though they dont contribute much, plants give off oxygen during photosynthesis as a waste since they dont need it giving us what we need. we help plants also by breathing out carbon dioxide which plants need. But, oxygen that we get is only about 2% from plants 98% of it comes from the protists in the ocean and water. Conclusion: water pollution must be stopped if you want to breathe. XD

How is plants are useful to animals vice versa?

- plants need the animal excrement to both spread seeds and to fertilize the soil!- animals need plants for food as many areherbivores which only eat animals, eat the plants and plants don't have much energy so animals eat lots of planst and the cycle continus


What process that plants and animals use sunlight to make food?

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.


Who needs more food plants or animals?

Both plants and animals have varying nutritional needs. Plants require nutrients like water, sunlight, and soil minerals to grow, while animals need a balanced diet of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals to thrive. Each is essential in its own way within the food chain.

How do organisms in the ocean obtain food?

if they are non-living they do not need to produce food. only living things need food


How do plants forage for food?

they don't, only animals can forage


How do plants depend on plants for survival?

There are animals that eat only plants for food. Plants are also helpful for animals to hide in, live in, and build nests with.


Animals the eat both plants and animals?

Animals that eat both plants and animals are called omnivores.


What would you say to a person who tells you animals only need plants for food?

I would describe why that statement is scientifically incorrect. Plans emit Oxygen which is essential for animal's cells to respire and yield energy. Animals release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere which plants need in order to perform photosynthesis. Therefore, both plants and animals are dependent on each other to survive.


Are omnivores only found in food webs?

carnivores eat other animals for food omnivores eat both plants and animals herbivores eat plants
