Answer:No

Explanation: Because without plants, animals would have no oxygen to breathe and would die. People also depend on plants for food. All animals eat either plants or plant-eating animals. Without plants there would be no food at all.

Ok so I just looked this up so please don’t come at me if it’s wrong,

I’m so sorry if this doesn’t help
