WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A HERBIVORE AND A CARNIVORE?

A herbivore is an animal that eats only plants like, grasshoppers, rabbits, and deer, but a carnivore is an animal that eats only other animals like a bluebird and a fox.

WHAT SUBSTANCE PROVIDES THE FUEL FOR MOST FOOD CHAINS?

The sun because it feeds the plants which starts the food chain. Say a seed was planted and the sun helped it grow into a plant, Then a grasshopper would eat the plant then it keeps going on and on. With out the sun that food chain would never have happened.

They provide shelter for animals by giving them the basic needs such as: food, water, and a dry home. A tree could be a dry home for birds but a flower could be a dry home for a butterfly.

How do plants provide shelter for animals?

WHY DO SOME PLANTS DEPEND ON ANIMALS FOR SURVIVAL?

When a seed is unplanted sometimes they need a animal to plant them. For Example, a sunflower seed was blown away by the wind, but then a bird could come and pick it up and drop it in the

dirt.

WHY WOULD A PARTICULAR PLANT STRUGGLE OR DIE OUTSIDE ITS NATURAL ENVIRONMENT?

It would not have the basic needs like enough sunlight or water. Say a cactus was used to the dessert but then someone put it in a forest it would struggle and eventually die.

HOW ARE MICROORGANISMS BENEFICIAL?Since they were the first

bacteria on earth they help us by making oxygen and plants. Nobody would be alive without microorganisms.
