Plants absorb carbon dioxide by photosynthesis. They release carbon dioxide, usually at night, through respiration.
Photosynthesis is a process that uses the energy of light (photo-) to fuel the conversion of carbon dioxide and water into sugars that can then be converted into plant material (-synthesis) as well as releasing oxygen. In the process of converting the sugars created by photosynthesis into other plant material, plants consume some oxygen and release carbon dioxide. This is particularly noticeable at night or when light is low and hence photosynthesis is not occurring. This process where they release carbon dioxide instead of taking it in is known as respiration. In general, the plants release more oxygen during photosynthesis than they consume in respiration and likewise consume more carbon dioxide in photosynthesis than they release in respiration.

No
Yes
They convert CO2 to O2 during the day, and the opposite during the night.
oxygen
Oxygen is given off during photosynthesis.It is during the aerobic cellular respiration of the leaf cells that carbon dioxide is given off.
The gas given off by photosynthesis is oxygen, plants take in carbon dioxide and generate it into oxygen.
In general outline, photosynthesis is the opposite of cellular respiration. CO2+ H2O+sunlight ----> O2 + H2O +carbohydrates.It uses carbon dioxide and the energy from sunlight to make carbohydrates and oxygen (a waste product from plants).
It is utilized in photosynthesis. CO2 is released in respiration
They convert CO2 to O2 during the day, and the opposite during the night.
Oxygen
No. Carbon dioxide is used for photosynthesis. The general equation for photosynthesis is C02 + H20 = Glucose and 02. Carbon dioxide is given off during respiration instead.
