Plants use carbon dioxide in the daytime as part of photosynthesis which occurs in the chloroplast. They use the CO2 and make sugars. People breath in oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide, plants do the opposite. They breath in carbon dioxide and breath out oxygen.
One small "technical" detail that should be mentioned. Plants really don't breath, they respire. People breath.
So, at the night, the plant cells respire more than they photosynthesise, so they get rid of more carbon dioxide than oxygen.

∙ 12y agoNo, during the day plants give out oxygen, take in carbon dioxide. But during the night plants take in oxygen give out carbon dioxide. Therefore,we are advised not go to the park at night!

Do plants take in carbon dioxide at day and take in oxygen at night?
do plants switch how they use oxygen day and night?
When Green Plants Give Out Carbon Dioxide?
Green plants give out oxygen in the day time and take carbon dioxide and during the night the green plants give out carbon dioxide and take oxygen.
Do aquatic plants absorb carbon dioxide during the day or at night?
Both
In what part of the day do plants more carbon dioxide than oxygen?
At night time.
What part of the day do plants produce more carbon dioxide then oxygen?
During the night
Do pot plants inhale oxygen at night?
No. Plants inhale carbon-dioxide. They exhale oxygen. This process happens through the day and night.
When is carbon dioxide obsorbed day or night Why?
Carbon dioxide is absorbed at both day and night. During the day more carbon is absorbed than at night time.
Why do plants give out carbon dioxide in the dark and oxygen in the light and can this reduce oxygen in the bedroom at night?
Simple answer is, plants breath like any other organism, by day they give out oxygen and at night give out carbon dioxide, ie humans breath in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide
Do plants need carbon dioxide to live?
No.Plants do not need carbon dioxide.But some plants use carbon dioxide during night and produce oxygen during day. Neem tree does not use carbon dioxide at all!!. They produce oxygen during the day as well as during the night.
What part of the day do plants produce more carbon dioxide and oxygen?
In general, plants either produce oxygen or produce carbon dioxide, but not both at the same time. During the daytime plants use sunlight (or other sources of light) to support photosynthesis where carbon dioxide is taken in and oxygen is generated. At night (or when it is dark) plants take in oxygen and generate carbon dioxide.
Where does a plant get the carbon dioxide it needs for the dark reactions of photosynthesis?
From the air around it. During the day, plants absorb oxygen from the air. At night - they absorb carbon dioxide.
At what time plants release oxygen?
When not engaged in photosynthesis (e.g. at night), plants use cellular respiration for energy, releasing some carbon dioxide. After death, the decomposition of plants releases carbon compounds such as carbon dioxide and methane.
