Animals cannot live without plants because animals cannot use energy from the sun. Some plants need animals to help them live or reproduce: squirrels planting acorns, and bees pollinating flowers are two examples.

Not directly. Decomposition is important to animals because it helps remove potential bio-hazards from their environment. Plants can assist in the decomposition process but mainly it is bacteria and insects that remove and breakdown most of the matter. This provides energy to plants and small life forms which can be consumed by larger animals. It's the circle of life.
