Animals produce carbon dioxide and plants produce oxygen as an output of cellular respiration.
Animals produce carbon dioxide and plants produce oxygen as an output of cellular respiration.

Animals and plants both take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide during cellular respiration.

Answer 1

The correct response is:

Animals produce carbon dioxide and plants produce oxygen as an output of cellular respiration.

This statement accurately describes the relationship between animals and plants in the context of cellular respiration and photosynthesis. Animals undergo cellular respiration to convert glucose and oxygen into energy, producing carbon dioxide as a byproduct, while plants produce oxygen during photosynthesis by using sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.
