Answer:

Animals benefit directly for that process.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plants are autotrophs, which mean that they provide their own food, don't need for other being to feed.

Animals are heterotrophs, which mean that they need other life beings to feed, to exist, because they don't produce their own food.

So, heterotrophs need autotrophs because they provide their food, this is the effect that has the plants process described.

During photosynthesis green plants manufacture the sugar molecules fructose and glucose. Green plants use energy from sunlight to build sugar molecules from carbon dioxide and water. ... During cellular respiration animal cells combine oxygen with food molecules to release energy to live and function.
