In the latter case the resistance is caused by dissipation of mechanical energy when the configuration or the direction of flow is sharply changed, by the formation of vortices and secondary flows as a result of the flow breaking away, by the centrifugal forces, etc.
Why do animals depend on plants. Plants give animals the food and shelter they need. Herbivores, which are plant eating animals, rely on plants to provide them with a regular source of food. They also provide shelter to may animals, both large and small.
Pollination can also occur within the same flower. Most flowering plants (90 percent) depend on animals to make the vital pollen-grain delivery. The remaining flowering plants rely on wind and some-times splashing raindrops to ferry pollen, but this is a less precise method. Pollinating animals do the job for a reward: food, usually in the form of nectar.
