If all the green plants were to disappear from the earth:

Correct answer: B. All the animal will die

  • A. Only the herbivores will die
  • B. All the animal will die
  • C. Only the carnivores will die
  • D. It will not matter to anyone because chemosynthetic bacteria will produce food for all

Explanation

Green plants are the main producers and energy entry point for most food chains, so their disappearance would eventually deprive herbivores and then carnivores of food. Chemosynthetic bacteria support only limited specialised ecosystems and cannot replace terrestrial plant production for all animals.
