Solution
Interdependence is a consistent relationship between organisms that lead a way of life together.
Plants depend on animals for CO2, (during photosynthesis), animals like bees & butterflies help in pollination. Earthworms & other microorganisms make the soil fertile for plant growth. Grazing and other big animals help with seed dispersal.
Animals depend on plants for food, medicines, supply of O2, removal of CO2, shelter plants are homes for a variety of animals & provide material for construction, furniture, clothing, etc.
