More Information
During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and release oxygen (O2). This process is vital for converting solar energy into chemical energy and providing oxygen for other living organisms.
Tips
A common mistake is to confuse the release of carbon dioxide during plant respiration, which occurs mainly at night, with photosynthesis, which produces oxygen during daylight.
