All life forms need energy to survive. Energy is the resource that allows organisms to do things. What kinds of things might an organism do with energy? This answer to this question is as varied as the life forms that use energy.
As with other life forms in biology, plant life can be studied at a variety of levels, from the molecular, genetic and biochemical level through to organelles, cells, tissues, organs and the biodiversity of whole plants.
Among the oldest life forms known, the Archaea make up one of three phylogenetic or evolutionary domains into which all life is classified. The other two are the Eukarya and the Bacteria.

It is a fact that major life forms now on earth were not at all represented in the past. There were no birds or mammals 250 million years ago. It is a fact that major life forms of the past are no longer living.

And these services are provided for all life forms?
That's true, although oftentimes when people think of ecosystem services they are specifically referring to those that are supplied to humans, ...
Extremely small and simple life forms made merely of a protein shell and a genome. A virus reproduces by inserting its genome into the cells of other life forms. As those cells duplicate, so does the virus.

All life forms are made from one or more cells.
Cells only arise from pre-existing cells.
The cell is the smallest form of life. The cell theory also provides us with an operational definition of "life.
Microsporidia: Single-celled life forms, related to Protozoa.
Mite: Any of several minute invertebrates belonging to the phylum Arthropoda, class Arachnida.
Morphology: Form or structure of an organism.
The organisms living today that are most similar to ancient life forms are the archaebacteria (the archaea in modern usage). This group is today restricted to marginal environments.

Up into the 19th century it was commonly believed that life forms can appear spontaneously under certain conditions (see abiogenesis).
Cenozoic A geological era beginning 65 million years ago and extending to the present, characterized by major adaptive radiation of specialized life forms and formation of biomes.

Nonetheless, plants are the basis for the Earth's ecosystem and food web, and without them complex animal life forms (such as humans) could never have evolved.
