Living things that do not respire 24/7 are soon dead things. Respiration occurs in all living cells to provide energy. in plants people often confuse photosynthesis with respiration. Photosynthesis is the extraction of carbon dioxide from the air using light energy to create oxygen and carbon, The carbon is changed into sugars and cellulose by the plant. The plant's respiration (using the sugars to create energy) goes on day and night.

When do plants respire?

Plants respire all the time, but it can be seen better at night. This is because photosynthesis has the opposite chemical formula, and since there is light, more oxygen returned out, then carbon dioxide is taken in.


Do cactus produce carbon dioxide and take oxygen?

During the day, cacti take in carbon dioxide through their stomata for photosynthesis and release oxygen as a byproduct. At night, they continue to respire like other plants, taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide.


Can geothermal energy make electricity only during the even hours?

No, geothermal energy can generate electricity continuously, 24 hours a day, regardless of whether it is day or night. Geothermal power plants tap into heat from the Earth's core to generate electricity consistently, making it a reliable source of renewable energy.


What type of soil and climate do jute plant need to grow well?

Jute plants thrive in well-drained loamy or sandy soils with a pH range of 4.8 to 8.2. They require a hot and humid climate with temperatures ranging from 24°C to 35°C and a minimum of 5-8 hours of sunlight per day for optimal growth. Jute plants also need a high level of rainfall, around 1500-2000 mm annually, to grow well.


How many hours of daylight occur on the first day of spring?

How many hours should you keep a plant in the sun?

This depends on the type of plant and its specific needs. Plants that require full sun will need minimally six hours of sun per day. Plants that require partial sun will need 4-6 hours of sun per day. Plants that require partial shade will need 2-4 hours of sun per day, and plants that require full shade will need no direct sunlight or no more than 2 hours per day.

How plants respire?

Plants have two types of respiration arobic and anerobic Plants do not breathe like humans, although they respire. This is when they absorb oxygen from the air around them and in return, release Carbon Dioxide. This is different from photosynthesis where they release oxygen and take in carbon dioxide. They photosynthesise to produce glucose, and then respire to convert that glucose into energy. During the day, plants give out more oxygen, and during the night, plants give out more carbon dioxide.
