Transpiration is the botanical term for this exchange of gases. Air, containing the carbon dioxide that plants need for photosynthesis, enters the plant in this process by way of small holes on the undersides of the leaves, called 'stomata'. This same process in reverse is how the plant moves oxygen, the by product of photosynthesis, out to release it into the atmosphere. In the transpiration process, plants use a water layer at the cell level to dissolve the carbon dioxide to be carried into the cell, since air can not move through the cell wall directly. Oxygen is moved out through the cell wall dissolved in water in the same manner.

How do plants exchange gases?
Through stomata and lenticells
Specialized passages through the cuticle that enable plants to exchange gases?
stomata.
How exchange of gases takes place in plants cell?
exchange of gases respiration and photosynthesis takes place through stem of the plant, the stem is green enough to carry the property of leaves, as in normal plants.. while exchange of gases in huge tree trunks takes place through lenticels, which are present in barks of the trunks... exchange of gases-respiration and photosynthesis- takes place through stem of the plant, the stem is green enough to carry the property of leaves, as in normal plants.. while exchange of gases in huge tree trunks takes place through lenticels, which are present in barks of the trunks...
What is the purpose of leaves in vascular plants?
to create a lot of surface area in plants to photosynthesize and to exchange gases with the environment.
How do plants and animals release energy?
Plants and animals release energy through cellular respiration. Plants and animals exchange gases through this process with animals taking in oxygen and plants carbon dioxide.
How do plants exchange gases?

What is the exchange of gases between plants and animals?
O2 in and CO2 out for animals, and the opposite for plants.
Which part of root is involved in the exchange of respiratory gases in plants?
Root Surface
What would happen if there were only green plants?
there would be no exchange of gases
Leaves have what on the lower surface?
Stomata that can help plants to exchange gases.
Why circulation takes place in animals and plants?
To exchange gases such as co2 and o2

What is different and similar in the ways plants and animals exchange gases with the environment?
Plants use their stomala to exchange gases with the environment by taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen and water vapor into the air. But I'm not sure about animals, anybody else?
