How Do Plants Breathe?

Plants breathe with by giving out carbon dioxide and taking in oxygen from the surrounding air. Green plants generally carry out photosynthesis as well respiration.

In the process of photosynthesis carbon dioxide is taken in and oxygen is given out. However this process of photosynthesize takes place only in light.

Plants generally respire all over, including the leaves, the stem, the roots and even the flowers. Even roots breathe in oxygen from the soil. However, access amount of water in the soil could kill plants. Generally the roots breathe easily through wet soil. Since the air carried from the atmosphere is carried down into the soil. This generally helps the roots of the plant to respire below water.

Respiration in plants is the opposite of photosynthesis. Just as animals do, plants take oxygen from the air and combine it with stored nutrients to form carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis works by plants absorbing carbon dioxide, water and nutrients in the soil and converting them into sugars and oxygen. Chlorophyll is required for the process.

Yes because if they don,t breath they will die

Yes, during the process of photosynthesis, they absorb carbon dioxide and sunlight and turn it into energy also producing oxygen.

Hope I have helped.
