Plant species are particular in their ability to produce oxygen and carbohydrates through photosynthesis. The plant, just like the animals also needs to breathe so that these cells survive, so it is forced to take some of the oxygen and carbohydrate produced by photosynthesis to operate these cells through cellular respiration.

so the answer is A !!!!!
