Plants being producers synthesize organic compounds through photosynthesis and herbivore animals eat plants and carnivores eat these herbivore's. Thus the entire animal kingdom is dependent on plants for their food.
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.
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.
Animals and plants are codependent upon on another for several reasons. Namely, animals depend on plants for nourishment while plants depend on animals for fertilizer.
ECOSYSTEM
all herbivores like cows, goats, sheep, elephants depend on plants for their food. if we consider a food pyramid, then we can infer that even a decomposer is indirectly dependant on the primary producers- plants
name two animals that depend on plants for food?
Animals such as omnivores depend on plants 2 make food.
Yes. Animals that eat other animals depend on herbivores for food, which in turn 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.
No. We depend on plants and animals for food.
Animals depend on plants for food and the reason for this is so animals can get the energy they store from the sun into their own bodies. They also depend on plants because plant's are autotrophs ( make their own food) by using and storing the sun's energy, so because us animals are hetrotrophs ( can't make our own food :S) we depend on the energy the plants have stored from the sun light.
Plants are at the bottom of the food chain. Plants can take nutrients from the soil and sunlight to make food for animals. Plants also make oxygen for animals including us to use, and we make carbon dioxide for the plants to use to make more oxygen. Plants can rely on animals to. Birds eat berries with seeds and poop them out in different places to help the plants reproduce.
Animals depend on plants for carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. Also because some animals need plants for food. Plants depend on animals for seed dispersal and pollination. Many animals depend on plants. Most animals just eat them, but some animals will you plants as shelter, to hide from predators, and many other reasons. Plants also depend on animals for energy. When an animal dies it provides nutrients for the plants to feed off of.
Food; shelter; safety
Food and shelter from attack.
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 depend on plants because without plants, nothing would have oxygen, lack of oxygen results in death. Also herbivores(animals that feed strictly on plants) depend on plants for food, if the herbivores all died out, all the carnivores(animals that feed strictly on meat) would also die out. Without plants or animals omnivores(animals that feed on plants or animals, humans are omnivores) would also die out. Resulting in a mass extinction.~
