Question

true or false? only animals (not plants) carry out cellular respiration.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Cellular respiration is a fundamental process for energy production in living organisms. Both animals and plants carry out cellular respiration. While plants also perform photosynthesis (a process unique to them), they still rely on cellular respiration to break down glucose (produced via photosynthesis or other means) to release energy for various cellular activities. Animals, of course, use cellular respiration to break down the food they consume for energy. So the statement "Only animals (not plants) carry out cellular respiration" is incorrect.

Answer:

False
