What are the composition of the dry matter of plant and animal?

The dry matter of plants primarily consists of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals, and fiber. Carbohydrates, such as cellulose and starch, make up a significant portion, along with proteins that are essential for growth and metabolism. In animals, dry matter is composed mainly of proteins, fats, and minerals, with a higher fat content compared to plants, reflecting their energy storage and metabolic needs. Both plant and animal dry matter also include essential nutrients that play critical roles in biological functions.
