respiration in plant animals

All air breathing animals and plants use oxygen present in air by the process of respiration. This is known as aerobic respiration. During respiration, food is burnt in living cells by using oxygen to release energy for all metabolic activities. Wi..

Every organism, whether its body is unicellular or multicellular, is capable of performing all vital functions such as respiration, ingestion, excretion and reproduction. In multicellular organisms, because of the increase in body size, it is difficult for each cell to efficiently c..

Introduction - All living creatures need food. The food is consumed so that energy is obtained. The energy is utilised by the body for various purposes like locomotion, conduction of impulses, repair of damaged tissues, building of cell materials, et..

External Respiration - Cellular respiration is common to all organisms - plants or animals. However, the external respiration, that is, the mechanism of gaseous exchange is different for different organisms. In plants, it is through pores ..
