From Joseph Ingenhousz's experiments, the following findings are correct:

  • Only the green parts of plants give off oxygen.
  • All parts of plants give off carbon dioxide.

Ingenhousz discovered that photosynthesis primarily occurs in the green parts of plants, which are responsible for oxygen production in the presence of light, while the non-green parts also exhale carbon dioxide.
