Which cells of a plant respire?

  1. Only the leaf cells, because gases enter and leave there
  2. Only the green cells that also photosynthesise
  3. Every living cell of the plant, including root cellsRespuesta correcta
  4. Only the cells that are actively growing at the time

Explicación

Every living cell needs energy for its own work and can only obtain it by breaking down sugar itself, so no living part of a plant is exempt. The pores of a leaf are where gases enter and leave, not where the reaction happens, and root cells respire steadily although they never make any sugar of their own.
