Plants, like the majority of evolved organisms, do use cellular respiration in order to convert energy stored in chemical bonds into usable energy.

They do not use it for energy from the sun; this is photosynthesis.

Plants do go through photosynthesis more than cellular respiration, so the net effect is a production of glucose and oxygen and consumption of water and carbon dioxide.

Do plants carry out cellular respiration and why?

Yes, plants do use energy to carry out cellular respiration, but this is only during investment stages. There is a net increase of energy through the process of cellular respiration, as it is the same process that occurs in all other eukaryotic life.


Do plants cells or animal cells carry out cellular respiration?

Yes. Plants and animals need energy. Energy must therefore be made in the cells.No, only animal cells carry on cellular respiration.animal cells carryon cellular respiration. plant cells carry out photosynthesis which is the opposite of respiration.


Why do plants carry out cellular respiration?

Yes, plants carry out aerobic cellular respiration to get energy from food just like we do. So when people say that oxygen is a waste product of photosynthesis they are incorrect. Plants need oxygen just like other organisms for aerobic respiration. It's just fortunate for the rest of the life forms on Earth that plants produce more oxygen than they need.


What gas do animals need to carry out life processes?

Animals need oxygen to carry out life processes. Plants need carbon dioxide. Some animals and plants can use either if they need to.

Why do plant cells need to do cellular respiration if they can make ATP from sunlight?

Plants make ATP through cellular respiration. Photosynthesis, which requires sunlight, does not make ATP - but glucose - which is then converted to ATP by cellular respiration. Therefore plants still need respiration to make ATP.


How many organisms need to be in a food chain to carry out cellular respiration?

Every organism in a food chain carries out cellular respiration. It involves the breakdown of organic molecules to release energy for metabolism. So, at least one organism in a food chain is needed to carry out cellular respiration.
