Respiration occurs in both animal and plant cells but photosynthesis occurs in plant cells.

Respiration is defined as the oxidation of glucose to release energy, both plant and animal cells respire glucose.

What do plants make during respiration?

Carbon dioxide is the product of respiration both plants and animals.


Can respiration occur day or night?

Yes, respiration can occur both day and night. In plants, respiration occurs continuously to generate energy for growth and metabolism. In animals, respiration also continues day and night to supply the body with oxygen and remove carbon dioxide.


What organelle in plants participates in cellular respiration what other organelle in both plants and animals is the main components for cellular respiration?

The organelle in plants that participates in cellular respiration is endoplasmic reticulum, and is also the organelle in both plants and animals, that is the main components for cellular respiration.


What gas used by both plants and animals is a product of photosynthesis?

Oxygen is a product of photosynthesis that is used by plants and animals for respiration.


Does respiration and photosynthesis both occur in all living things?

No, not all living things perform both respiration and photosynthesis. Plants, algae, and some bacteria perform photosynthesis, while most organisms, including plants, animals, and bacteria, perform respiration to generate energy.


Is oxygen consumed when plants or animals perform aerobic cellular respiration?

Yes, both plants and animals consume oxygen when they perform aerobic cellular respiration.


Does respiration occur in plant or animal?

In both. In plants they use photosynthesis during the day and at night they use cellular respiration because there is no sun to produce the energy needed with photosynthesis. In animals they only use cellular respiration.


Does photosynthesis or cellular respiration only occur in plants?

No, both photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur in plants as well as in other organisms such as bacteria, fungi, and animals. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight to produce energy, while cellular respiration is the process by which organisms use oxygen to break down glucose and produce ATP for energy.


What sugar do both plants and animals need?

Sugars are the fuel for respiration. Respiration fulfills the energy need of cell


Is glucose found in animals or plants?

Glucose is found in both plants and animals. Plants produce glucose by photosynthesis, and animals consume glucose (it is the first reactant for cellular respiration).


What is misleading about the following statement Plants perform photosynthesis and animals perform cellular respiration?

The statement is misleading because both plants and animals perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Plants perform photosynthesis to produce energy, while animals perform cellular respiration to break down energy-rich molecules and release energy.


Which gas is needed by plants for respiration?

Oxygen is the gas that animals use in respiration. Plants use both oxygen and carbon dioxide. (This is assuming you mean cellular respiration.)
