Plants
The importance of plants to humans and just about all other life on Earth is
staggering. Plants supply food to nearly all organisms, including humans. We eat either
plants or other organisms that eat plants. Plants maintain the atmosphere. They produce
oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. Plants recycle matter in
biogeochemical cycles. For example, through transpiration, plants move enormous
amounts of water from the soil to the atmosphere. Plants provide many products for
human use, such as firewood, timber, fibers, medicines, dyes, pesticides, oils, and rubber.
Plants create habitats for many organisms. A single tree may provide food and shelter to
many species of insects, worms, small mammals, birds, and reptiles. Life as we know it
would not be possible without plants.
