Banyan trees, like most plants, typically produce oxygen through photosynthesis during the day when sunlight is available. However, at night, they undergo respiration, which involves consuming oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide. Some studies suggest that banyan trees may exhibit a form of photosynthesis called CAM (Crassulacean Acid Metabolism) under certain conditions, allowing them to absorb carbon dioxide at night and potentially release oxygen. Nonetheless, overall, they do not significantly contribute to oxygen production at night.
Define a "normal" tree; banyans are by no means extraordinary or any more special than any other type. Trees (in general and for the most part) produce huge amounts of oxygen, because of their size and the number of them that exist. However, in terms of the amount of oxygen-producing capability per amount of tree (in mass) they are fairly inefficient, and broadleafed plants are better for oxygen production by natural means.

The aerial roots of a banyan tree help it to breathe by absorbing oxygen from the air. These roots also facilitate gas exchange and help in the tree's respiration process.
Banyan tree is called BARGAD KA PED in Hindi. here Banyan is called as Bargad.
Yes, the banyan tree is autotrophic, meaning it produces its own food through photosynthesis. Like other plants, it uses sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to create glucose and oxygen. This process occurs in the chlorophyll-containing leaves of the tree. As a result, banyan trees play a vital role in their ecosystems by providing oxygen and serving as a habitat for various organisms.
