Plants and animals both take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen during cellular respiration.

Plants use oxygen for photosynthesis, which animals then use for cellular respiration.

Answer 1

The appropriate response to how plants and animals rearrange atoms in chemical reactions to support their functions is:

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

This reflects the process of cellular respiration in animals, which produces carbon dioxide as a byproduct, while plants perform photosynthesis, taking in carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen.
