About this document
Plant Respiration and Energy Release by aytramakhiiral06 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
All living organisms require energy to carry out daily functions. Plants get their energy through photosynthesis, converting light energy into chemical energy stored in carbohydrates. However, not all plant cells can photosynthesize, so non-green plant parts require cellular respiration to break down carbohydrates and release energy, just as respiration provides energy for animals. Respiration is the process by which organisms extract energy from food through the oxidation of molecules like glucose.
