Answers
ALL THE PLANTS GIVE OUT OXYGEN DURING DAY AND CARBON DIOXIDE DURING NIGHT
I AGREE WITH THIS AS
Plants give out carbon dioxide not only at night but during the day too. It happens because of the process of respiration in which plants take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide. As soon as the sun rises another process called photosynthesis starts, in which carbon dioxide is taken in and oxygen is given out.
Yes, the statement is correct. Plants respire throughout the day, while photosynthesis takes place only in the presence of sunlight. In daytime, CO2 produced during respiration is used by the plants in photosynthesis. So, CO2 is not released into the environment. The oxygen produced during photosynthesis, is released into air through stomata. At night, when there is no photosynthesis, no oxygen is released. Also, CO2 produced during respiration is not used by the plants. So, it is released in the air.
