Plants do not need Oxygen to create their own food, but need Carbon Dioxide and water to produce Glucose and Oxygen.
Yes but to exploit the food they do make for metabolic purposes plants do exploit oxygen. Plants are respiring all the time. It is just that during the day they photosynthesize more oxygen then they use. During the night they use more oxygen then they make. This is why hospitals remove flowers from patients rooms during the night.

∙ 14y agoYes plants transpire, they use Oxygen and expire Carbon dioxide. They also use Carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and producing Oxygen as a waste product. Photosynthesis only occurs in bright light but they respire all day and all night. Another answer: Actually it is the other way around. Plants take in Carbon dioxide and throw off Oxygen.

∙ 12y agowe have oxygen and the plants need oxygen and nitrogen to live so that we can breathe. You see the plants give off oxygen and we give off nitrogen they need it and we need it so yeah. It's called photosynthesis when plants make there own food. :] hope i helped

∙ 10y agoAll living organisms require oxygen to metabolise and function, this includes plants.
The majority of a plants oxygen is absorbed through its root system, while carbon dioxide is absorbed through the stomata of the leaves.

∙ 15y agoPlants remove oxygen from carbon dioxide by photosynthesis. They release the oxygen back into the air and use the carbon for building new cells.

They do need some oxygen, but they produce more than they use.

Can life on earth live with only oxygen in the air?
No, especially not carbon dioxide, because plants need carbon dioxide to help make food, and animals depend on plants for food and oxygen. Plants gives off oxygen as a waste matter
What are three ways plants help the earth?
Well, one is that we breathe in Oxygen and breathe out Carbon Dioxide. Plants do the exact opposite. We need Oxygen to breathe, and plants breathe out Oxygen. That helps every living thing. Another is that plants help the food chain by events usually in this order: Plants make food-Bugs eat the plants-Birds eat the bugs-Less bugs mean more food for humans-We eat the food the plants make-We grow new plants. Thirdly, plants provide shelter and shade. They grow into trees which in turn can bear food. Hope this helped!
What do plants give off after photosynthesis?
Any extra energy (food) which is left over is stored as starch
Functions of photosynthesis?
To make food for the plants and to produce oxygen.
Do plants give oxygen off when using photosynthesis?
Yes plants give out oxygen during photosynthesis but only in the morning . At night when there is no sunlight they use the oxygen to make their food .

How does plants purduce food?
Green plants are the only plants that produce oxygen and make food, which iscalled photosynthesis
Do plants make or eat food?
plants create food during a process known as photosynthesis , this requires water , carbon dioxide and sunlight Photosynthesis creates glucose 9 which is the plants energy) and oxygen This is how plants help the environment because they use carbon dioxide and the oxygen is produced.
What gas is a byproduct and is process plants use to make their own food?
oxygen
Which plants make food from sunlight?
all plants make food by the help of sunlight
Does any other plants give off oxygen besides trees?
Nearly all plants, as well as algae, create oxygen. In fact, all plants and algae that make their own food from sunlight, air, and water do produce oxygen. Two my knowledge, there are only a couple of types of parasitic plants that get food from other plants, and thus do not make their own food or oxygen.
What materials are needed plants to make food?
Sunlight Carbon dioxide Water Plants need air while making food but not oxygen. Plants only need oxygen at night.
What do plants give off after photosynthesis?
Any extra energy (food) which is left over is stored as starch
Do green plants combine oxygen and water to make food?
Nay. Green plants combine carbon dioxide, water and sunlight to make food. Fortunately for us, they excrete oxygen as a result.
Functions of photosynthesis?
To make food for the plants and to produce oxygen.
In which way do all animals need plants need for survival?
All animals need plants for survival because plants make food and oxygen. we all need oxygen to breathe and the plants I'm sure you know take the carbon dioxide in the air and make it into oxygen. and as for food some animals eat leaves and plants also make food like berries that we and animals eat too. :)
