Kids in the Garden, Ep 5: How plants work

TLF ID M015702

Plants are the only living things that can make their own food. They do this during the day while it's light, using a process called photosynthesis, which uses carbon dioxide and produces oxygen. During the day and night plants take in oxygen and release carbon dioxide through respiration. Discover just how important plants are to life on Earth. Find out how we can help plants survive and thrive.
