Answer 1

Plants perform photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Cellular respiration is the conversion of glucose into ATP and energy yielding molecules such as NADH and FADH2 along with water and oxygen and carbon dioxide as by-products.
• Cellular respiration is a process that occurs both in autotrophs and heterotrophs.
• Only the final stage of cellular respiration i.e. oxidative phosphorylation or electron transport chain requires oxygen as the final electron acceptor.
• Heterotrophic cells don't take in carbondioxide, they utilize glucose obtained through food.
