It is the way mammals, even insects, work/function that make them utilize oxygen and give off Carbon diOxide (Co2)
Oxygen from air is absorbed through the capillaries in the lungs of mammals. It attaches itself to the red blood cells and is transported to other parts of the body where it is needed.
When cells use oxygen (in order to produce energy) the reaction makes Co2 of which is again transported away by the red blood cells back to the lungs Ha where it is freed up into the air we breathe out.
Plants work the other way around but get their energy to do so from the sun.
Plants use the energy from the sun in order to split Co2 into Carbon and Oxygen. Oxygen is a waste product and Carbon is further used as building blocks (in combination with other nutrients from the soil) making the plant grow.
A very crude and simplistic explanation of a very complex subject, but sort of to the point.

What do people breathe in from plants?
Oxygen - we give plant carbon dioxide
Which compounds reacts with oxygen to give carbon dioxide?
Carbon form carbon dioxide by oxydation.
What is one gas that plants give off through photosynthesis?
Plants give of oxygen and need to use carbon dioxide and sunlight to make food. This makes them perfect partners to animals since we give off carbon dioxide and need oxygen to make ATP (energy).
Do eucalyptus trees give off Carbon Dioxide?
Yes, eucalyptus trees undergo the process of photosynthesis where they absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. So, in general, eucalyptus trees do not give off carbon dioxide.
Do we give off carbon dioxide?
Only if you are breathing.
What could you use to show that carbon dioxide is give off when calcium carbonate is heated?
Carbon dioxide makes lime water milky.
How do people like trees?
trees give us oxygen and we give them carbon dioxide
What do we as people give off to plants?
Life giving carbon dioxide.
Do people give out carbon dioxide to make plants live?
Yes
What do people breathe in from plants?
Oxygen - we give plant carbon dioxide
What gas does baking powder give off?
Carbon dioxide, CO2
Which compounds reacts with oxygen to give carbon dioxide?
Carbon form carbon dioxide by oxydation.
How is the cell's use of carbon dioxide and water similar to people's recycling of paper and plastic bottles?
Cells give out carbon dioxide like people give out paper and plastic bottles. They re-use them over and over again.
How do monkeys give off carbon dioxide?
Monkeys give off carbon dioxide when they exhale - the same as humans do!
How do animal gives out carbon dioxide?
Yes we do, we absorb the oxygen and give out carbon dioxide
What function does carbon dioxide serve?
plants release carbon dioxide and we give out oxygen .
How are oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged between the veins and arteries?
Plants give us oxygen we give them carbon dioxide.
