During the day when there is ample sunlight they use carbon dioxide and produce oxygen by photosynthesis. At night and for their life processes (cellular respiration) they consume oxygen and emit carbon dioxide. Overall they produce more oxygen than carbon dioxide.

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight to produce sugar, which cellular respiration converts into ATP. The photosynthetic process uses water and releases the oxygen.

When performing photosynthesis, plants produce oxygen.
