Plants can get along without respiratory organ because\

Question

Professor PC Thomas Classes · Answer

(d): Plants require oxygen for respiration and release carbon dioxide. For this gaseous exchange, they do not require any specialised organs. This is because:\ (i) Each plant part takes care of its own gas-exchange needs. There is very little transport of gases from one part to another.\ (ii) Plants do not have great demands for gas exchange. Roots stems and leaves respire at lowest rates.\ (iii) The distance of gas diffusion in plants is not much because each living cells in a plant is located quite close to the surface of the plant.
