Because terrestrial organisms cannot live without plants since most terrestrial organism relies on plants as their source of food, air and sometimes shelter. Without plants, terrestrial organisms cannot survive because most terrestrial organisms are heterotrophic in nature, meaning they cannot produce their own food. While plants are autotrophic in nature meaning they produce their own food. Terrestrial organisms are organisms that lives in the land and most of them relies on plants as their source of food and shelter like sloths, koalas and monkeys.
