In our book there is a chapter called respiration in plants but in the tab that chapter's title is respiration in plants and animals and it mainly consists of videos of respiration in animals and only one video of respiration in plants.

- aerobic respiration in plants

- anaerobic respiration in plants

- respiration through leaves (via the stomata) /stems (lenticles) /roots (pneumatophores - eg. mangroves)
