Yes, but they release more oxygen than they take in. (unless it isn't getting any sunlight)
that's not true....like all living organisms, plants breathe in oxygen at all times..its just that they involve in photosynthesis , in addition, during daytime Plants do indeed take in carbon dioxide and expel oxygen. It is the only reason we are here. Oxygen is unstable and must be constantly replenished, without the plants putting off oxygen we could not survive. It is the basic formula for life and is what we search for in the cosmos for other inhabited planets.
Um... breathing is based on the need for oxygen... do you breathe at a constant rate?
yes, caterpillars only breathe a few times an hour though. All living things need oxygen.
You can breathe the same air multiple times before it becomes stale and depleted of oxygen. The amount of times depends on factors such as the size of the enclosed space, the number of people present, and the level of ventilation. However, it is important to have proper air circulation and ventilation to ensure a continuous supply of fresh oxygen.
the air is a mixture mainly of Nitrogen, around 80%, and a mixture of other gases including Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide (CO2). Only the oxygen is required for human breathing purposes, so you take in about 5 times the quantity of air as you need in order to get your oxygen supply. When the oxygen is used for 'internal combustion by the body's muscles, the by product is carbon dioxide which becomes part of the air you breath out. Plants don't actually breath but absorb CO2 in the process of photosynthesis, which requires light to operate, at which point the plant will release oxygen, but during the dark hours, it uses oxygen and puts out CO2.
the global ecosystem depends on both plants and animals to survive▬and as part of that ecosystem,plants and animals need each other. although their symbiotic relationship is something subtle,at other times their impact on one another is stricking..
Each minute kids take an average of 20 breaths. When you breathe in, your lungs fill with oxygen. When you breathe out, your lungs push out carbon dioxide.
The atmosphere is mostly recycled. So yes, the air we breathe probably was breathed by dinosaurs, then the carbon dioxide they exhaled was converted to oxygen by plants, and after that cycle repeated itself many times, we are breathing the same air they did.
The higher you go up away from the Earth's surface, the less oxygen can be found in the air and more of gases we don't need to breathe in. So, as the mountaineer goes higher up, breathing becomes harder and your body works slowly, reducing reaction times. By carrying an oxygen tank, the mountaineer can always be breathing the perfect concentration of oxygen they need at all times.
sharks have to swim at all times. if they stop moving, no oxygen can pass through its gill slits for the shark to breathe.
Only at DAYTIME
because we use up oxygen much faster than we use up the energy in food.
