Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The waste products produced by cellular life processes the most important of which are carbon dioxide, water, urea and mineral salts.
A
ATP
B
metabolic wastes
C
feces
D
enzymes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -These chemical reactions produce waste products such as carbon dioxide, water, salts, urea and uric acid. Accumulation of these wastes beyond a level inside the body is harmful to the body. The excretory organs remove these wastes. This process of removal of metabolic waste from the body is known as excretion.

Detailed explanation-2: -Metabolic wastes (carbon dioxide, water, oxygen, and nitrogenous compounds) diffuse through the cell membranes of these unicellular organisms into the outside environment.

Detailed explanation-3: -Thus, the waste products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide and water.

Detailed explanation-4: -Plants produce two gaseous waste products i.e. oxygen during photosynthesis and carbon dioxide during respiration. Excretion of gaseous waste in plants takes place through stomatal pores on leaves.

Detailed explanation-5: -The lungs are responsible for the excretion of gaseous wastes, primarily carbon dioxide from cellular respiration in cells throughout the body.
