They make the planet look green
C
They use carbon dioxide and give us oxygen
D

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel.

Detailed explanation-2: -Carbon dioxide is a necessary element of photosynthesis in plants. It is used in optimum amount by plants to make their food. But a high concentration of carbon dioxide can damage the plant. High concentration of carbon dioxide is not only harmful to plants but also to environment.

Detailed explanation-3: -Plants take up carbon dioxide from air and give out oxygen during photosynthesis. Animals take up oxygen and release carbon dioxide during respiration. This maintains a balance between oxygen and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
