Plants rely on animals to produce carbon dioxide. What do plants produce that animals need to survive?
A
food and oxygen
B
sunshine and rain
C
carbon dioxide and food
D
herbivores and carnivores
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen helps the body’s cells function normally. The cycle of carbon dioxide and oxygen on Earth is dependent on plants and animals. Plants provide the oxygen that animals and other living things need to survive. Animals and other living things provide the carbon dioxide that plants need to make their own food.

Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygen is given off by green plants in the process of photosynthesis. Green plants are the lungs of the earth! All animals inhale oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen as they make food.

Detailed explanation-3: -Solution: Animals, during respiration, take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide gas. Plants, on the other hand, utilize this carbon dioxide gas in the process of photosynthesis to produce food and release oxygen in the atmosphere.

Detailed explanation-4: -Through a process called photosynthesis, leaves pull in carbon dioxide and water and use the energy of the sun to convert this into chemical compounds such as sugars that feed the tree. But as a by-product of that chemical reaction oxygen is produced and released by the tree.
