"Plants" do not possess a diaphragm and thus lack the ability to "inhale", rather they use pores on the surface of the leaf called Stomates. Being able to open and close according to external conditions, Stomates allow plants to exchange airborne gases and play a crucial role in respiration.

Plants don't breathe in oxygen they breathe out oxygen from small holes in their leaves called stomata. This is why plants are so important in the environment they produce our oxygen for us.

Nope, they all breathe in Carbon Dyoxide. Plants play an important role in our lives as they breathe in the Carbon Dioxide we breathe out and use it to breathe out Oxygen.
