Respiration in Plants:
- respiration uses oxygen and produces carbon dioxide.
- Plants respire all the time because their cells need energy to stay alive, but plants can only photosynthesise when they are in the light.
- The plants get energy through the process of respiration in which glucose food breaks down in the presence of oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water with the release of energy.
Respiration in Animals:
- Respiration happens in the cells of plants, animals and humans, mainly inside mitochondria, which are located in a cell's cytoplasm.
- Breathing is important to organisms because cells require oxygen to move, reproduce and function.
- Through Plasma Membrane. In unicellular animals, such as amoeba, exchange of gases takes place through cell surface.
