Plants respire like us. But it is difficult to observe this through experiments. Both plants and
animals use oxygen during respiration. We might have heard of big hospitals keeping cylinders
filled with oxygen. When a person has breathing problems he is given oxygen. An oxygen mask is
fitted to the nose and mouth of the person and a rubber tube connects the mask to the oxygen
cylinder. Sometimes a patient is given oxygen during an operation.
a) When is the oxygen given to a person?
b) How oxygen is sent from oxygen cylinder to the person?
c) What is the use of oxygen cylinder?
d) Why plants need to use oxygen for respiration?

15. What questions you ask your teacher to know about relationship between photosynthesis
and respiration in plants?
