No, this is not true, all organisms undergo cellular respiration. Only the green (chlorophyll containing) cells of a plant can perform photosynthesis to build sugars using the energy from sunlight, these cells and other cells in the plant (that can't perform photosynthesis) break down those sugars through respiration to get the energy they need (in the form of ATP) to perform other cellular functions. All photosynthesis is, is a way to capture the energy of the sun, once that energy is captured, the plant releases and uses that energy the same way as any other organism. Cellular Respiration.

Is it true or false that cellular respiration occurs mostly in a plants nucleus?
No. Cellular respiration occurs mostly in the mitochondria (the "powerhouse of the cell") and in the cytoplasm (the fluid filling the cell).
Can only organisms that breathe perform cellular respiration?
false ,plants need to under go respiration too in order to survive because the glucose created in photosynthesis stores energy and the plant needs to break the chemical bonds of glucose, which cellular respiration does, to get energy
True or false Photosynthesis and cellular respiration form a cycle that links organisms to each other and to their environment?
false, photosynthesis occurs in plants only
True OR false type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen to occur?
It is TRUE that AEROBIC respiration requires oxygen to occur. It is FALSE that ANAEROBIC respiration requires oxygen to occur. It is FALSE that cells are DEPENDENT on AEROBIC respiration.
Plants do photosynthesis only and animals do cellular respiration only?
Well plants are autotrophs, so photosynthesis is how they eat, because it is obviously visible plants do not have mouths. We don't need photosynthesis because we eat food like twinkies and meat to get our energy. Respiration is something every eukaryote (plant/animal/fungi/protist) needs to do.
True or false: Plants use cellular respiration?
true
Plant cells use photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
True. Plants need photosynthesis for food production. Respiration is for energy production
Is it true or false that cellular respiration occurs mostly in a plants nucleus?
No. Cellular respiration occurs mostly in the mitochondria (the "powerhouse of the cell") and in the cytoplasm (the fluid filling the cell).
Respiration takes place in the cells of most organisms?
Cellular respiration takes place in all cells. However, aerobic cellular respiration does not take place in all cells. Many cells undergo anaerobic cellular respiration.
True or false if an animal cell stops carrying out cellular respiration will it die?
true- if cellular respiration stops then an animal will not be able to breathe.
Is metabolism a part of cellular respiration?
Yes, True, yet in reverse: Cellular respiration is a small part of Cellular and Organismic Metabolism.
Can only organisms that breathe perform cellular respiration?
false ,plants need to under go respiration too in order to survive because the glucose created in photosynthesis stores energy and the plant needs to break the chemical bonds of glucose, which cellular respiration does, to get energy
True or false Photosynthesis and cellular respiration form a cycle that links organisms to each other and to their environment?
false, photosynthesis occurs in plants only
True of false photosynthesis is essentially the reverse of cellular respiration?
true
What is one true distinction between fermentation and cellular respiration?
cellular respiration uses oxygen but fermentation does not use oxygen
Does cellular respiration give the ability of a plant to repair tissue?
true. cellular respiration does give the abilty to repair plant tissue.
What is true of the role of carbohydrates in photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Carbohydrates are made in photosynthesis. it is burning in the cellular respiration.
