otool is the OSX equivalent of Linux's ldd, with which you can query a binary file to see which dynamic libraries it depends on. As otheus points out, probably quite a lot will depend on libobjc.

fuser can tell you which currently active processes are using a file.

You can use lsof to show files opened by a process with option -p PID if you know its PID or -c command for the actual command. The option -r 1 option to continually update the information might be useful too.
