Question

Which of the following options states the different ways of excretion in plants?

• A. Only transpiration and diffusion
• B. Only transpiration and storage
• C. Transpiration, diffusion and storage
• D. Only diffusion and storage

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Transpiration, diffusion and storage

• Plants excrete waste products through transpiration (water vapor), diffusion (gases), and storage (in vacuoles or other parts of the plant).

• Plants excrete this gas through small pores called stomata present on the surface of leaves.

• Plants also excrete waste products through transpiration, which is the process of water loss through leaves.

• This process helps in removing excess salts, minerals, and other waste products from the plant.
