Plants Respiration

Answer

In all the parts

Reason — Leaves respire through stomata, stems respire through lenticel and roots respire through their general surface.
Stomata are structures for gas exchange, not the site of respiration. Respiration occurs inside cells, not in stomata. Leaves do respire, but respiration is not limited to leaves. All living parts of the plant need energy. Lenticels also help in gas exchange in woody stems, but respiration does not occur only there.
