Answer:

Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide to make sugar and produces oxygen as a byproduct. Respiration uses oxygen to release energy from stored sugar and produces carbon dioxide as a byproduct. ... However, if the plants are growing, then over a period of 24 hours they will produce more oxygen than they consume.
