      Respiration in plants is the opposite of photosynthesis.  Just as animals do, plants take oxygen from the air and combine it with stored nutrients to form carbon dioxide and water.  Photosynthesis works by plants absorbing carbon dioxide, water and nutrients in the soil and converting them into sugars and oxygen.  Chlorophyll is required for the process.

        Yes plants do breathe . They give out carbon dioxide and absorb oxygen from the air. The tissues respire just as animal tissues do. See the link below for the respiration process:
