Are plants able to do cellular respiration? Why or why not?

Both plants and animals are able to do cellular respiration. Plants convert nutrients from the soil into usable energy.

This is the plant cellular respiration formula:

oxygen + glucose -> carbon dioxide + water + heat energy

Hope this helped! Let me know if there is anything I need to clarify or explain more in depth
