It is the office of plant life or vegetation to convert the primary elements from their crude inorganic state into the organic state.

But the animal cannot do the work of the plant. He must get his food either directly or indirectly from the plant kingdom. That is, the animal must either eat the plant or its fruits, or he must eat the animal that has eaten the plant. Food must be in the organic form.
