During the day, both processes go on with a net production of O2. At night, no photosynthesis occurs but the plants are still alive and active metabolically. They fuel the metabolic processes of life by burning sugars in cellular respiration which releases CO2. Plants (like animals) release CO2 when they respire and O2 during photosynthesis.

I am very impressed with the content and clarity of this website and find it has very interesting and useful information. Thanks.
